ZODB 3.6.0 final released
by Tim Peters 05 Jan '06

05 Jan '06

I'm pleased to announce the release of ZODB 3.6 final. This corresponds to the ZODB included (or that will be included) in Zope 2.9 final and Zope 3.2 final. You can download a source tarball or Windows installer from: http://zope.org/Products/ZODB3.6 Note that there are two Windows installers, for Python 2.3 (2.3.5 is recommended) and Python 2.4 (2.4.2 is recommended). Because Zope 2.9 and Zope 3.2 require Python 2.4.1+, it's unlikely that a Python 2.3 Windows installer will be built for later releases in the ZODB 3.6 line (I built one this time out of habit, but expect most people would rather see the time applied to something more generally useful). ZODB 3.6 adds a few new features, and incorporates all the bugfixes made to date in the ZODB 3.4 and 3.5 lines. Note that this is the first public release of ZODB 3.6 as a standalone package; 10 internal releases were made since last September to support ongoing Zope 2.9 and 3.2 development. See the NEWS file for details: http://zope.org/Products/ZODB3.6/NEWS.html The current status of all active ZODB lines can be seen here: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/CurrentStatus Note that ZODB 3.2 is now officially "retired", corresponding to the retirement of the Zope 2.7 line (no new releases in the Zope 2.7 or ZODB 3.2 lines are planned).

Here at CodeSyntax, http://www.codesyntax.com we have developed a new Zope blogging product. It is called Bitakora or Bitakora Blog Community.

It is multilingual, with varios language versions right now (english, spanish, basque). Blogs managed thru this system are based on a tag-based archive. And other features, as well (ePoz based wysiwyg editor, pingback system...). There must be bugs, of course. This is the release 0.1.

DirectoryStorage 1.1.17
by Toby Dickenson 04 Jan '06

04 Jan '06

I am pleased to announce the release of DirectoryStorage, version 1.1.17. Over the last few months DirectoryStorage has been languishing at 'release candidate' status, so this is the first release badged 'stable' to include Zope 3 support (thanks to Philipp von Weitershausen), NTFS support (thanks to Enfold Systems and Mark Hammond), and numerous small improvements to replication and backup tools. http://dirstorage.sourceforge.net/ What is DirectoryStorage? An alternative storage for ZODB that uses ordinary files and directories to store revisions of ZODB objects; one file per revision per object. Designed to be robust, manageable, fault tolerant, and scalable.
