by Tres Seaver 19 Dec '06

19 Dec '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Announcing the release of version 1.4.1 of the PluggableAuthService (PAS) product. This is a bugfix release, and is a recommended upgrade for sites currently running PAS 1.4. Overview This product defines a fully-pluggable user folder, intended for use in all Zope sites. Documentation Please see the files under doc/ in the packaged software for more information, and consult the interfaces files under interfaces/ in the software package for PluggableAuthService and plugin APIs. Bugs Fixed - BasePlugin: The listInterfaces method only considered the old-style __implements__ machinery when determining interfaces provided by a plugin instance. - Made sure the emergency user via HTTP basic auth always wins, no matter how borken the plugin landscape. - ZODBUserManager: Already encrypted passwords were encrypted again in addUser and updateUserPassword (backported from trunk).

Silva 1.5.9 Released
by Kit BLAKE 17 Dec '06

17 Dec '06

Infrae has just released version 1.5.9 of the Silva content management system. This is a maintenance release that improves performance, exposes Firefox spellcheck capability, and fixes various minor issues. Changes in Silva and related products An abridged list of changes follows. For complete details of the fixed issues see HISTORY.txt in the packages. Silva - Changed calls from getMetdata to getMetadataValue where possible, resulting in a significant performance gain. - Fixed unicode bug in Indexers. - Fixed a number of minor bugs. SilvaMetadata - Bugfix for empty strings in aqcuirable metadata fields blocking acquisition. Thanks to Nico Grubert for the bug report and fix. Kupu - When images exist in a document and the author scales one, the display in Kupu can be cached by the browser and doesn't update properly. The editor frame is now reloadable with the right-mouse button so authors can force a reload. - Previously Kupu had a right-mouse button menu. This has been disabled, with the intention of exposing spellcheck functionality that is built into Firefox 2.0. This means, if you are using FF 2.0, text in Silva is automatically checked. Dictionaries for all major languages are simple to install. SilvaLayout - The modification time shown when viewing a folder is now taken from the default document. What is Silva? Silva is a powerful CMS for organizations that manage complex websites. Content is stored in clean and futureproof XML, independent of layout and presentation. Features include versioning, workflow system, integral visual editor (Kupu), content reuse, sophisticated access control, multi-site management, extensive import/export facilities, fine-grained templating, and hi-res image storage and manipulation. For more complete information, see the Silva Product Pages at http://infrae.com/products/silva/. Download The package can be downloaded from: http://infrae.com/download/Silva. Links to developer mailing lists, the Silva issue tracker, and info about SVN access can be found on the Silva intro page. Contact FMI contact Eric Casteleijn, eric at infrae com, +31 10 243 7051.

A new templating system available!
by Chris Withers 16 Dec '06

16 Dec '06

Hi All, I'm proud to announce that after almost a year's development, the first public release of Twiddler is available! Twiddler is a simple but flexible templating system for dynamically generating textual output. It comes with bindings for Zope 2 and should easily slot into a Zope 3 view in place of a ZPT. The key features are: - No need to learn a templating language. - As simple as possible while still catering for all possible templating operations. - Configurable input parsing so source can be html, xml, plain text or anything you write an input parser for. - Configurable output rendering so output can be rendered to a unicode string, an email, or anything you write an output renderer for. You can find out more and download from here: http://www.simplistix.co.uk/software/python/twiddler If you wish to ask questions, pass judgement or get help, please do so in the following mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/twiddler This is the first public release, so I'm looking for help with the following: - Finding anything that should be possible in a templating system but isn't with Twiddler - Packaging it up for easier distribution. I know nothing about eggs, distutils, etc, and so could do with help to package Twiddler so that it can be more easily installed. Finally, here's a couple of quick examples: >>> from twiddler import Twiddler >>> t = Twiddler('''<body> ... <div id="title">A title</div> ... <select name="items"> ... <option id="item">An item</option> ... </select> ... </body>''') >>> t['title'].replace('My title') >>> r = t['item'].repeater() >>> for i in range(1,4): ... r.repeat('Item '+str(i),value=i,name=False) >>> print t.render() <body> <div id="title">My title</div> <select name="items"> <option id="item" value="1">Item 1</option> <option id="item" value="2">Item 2</option> <option id="item" value="3">Item 3</option> </select> </body> >>> from twiddler.input.plaintext import PlainText >>> t = Twiddler('''To: $to ... <item>An item</item> ... ''',input=PlainText) >>> t['to'].replace('John Smith') >>> r = t['item'].repeater() >>> for i in range(1,4): ... r.repeat('Item '+str(i),value=i,name=False) >>> print t.render() To: John Smith Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Thanks for reading this far, I hope you enjoy it! cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

Localizer is a Zope product for developers and web masters. Localizer solves the problem of building multilingual products and web sites, ranging from internationalization and localization of the user interface to management of multilingual content.

There are also a couple of bugs fixed: - The method "LocalPropertyManager.__getattr__" works again. - The function "Utils.lang_negotiator" works now when the context is not available. Credits: - Mikel Larreategi fixed "LocalPropertyManager.__getattr__". - Josef Meile worked on ZPT. - Yoshinori Okuji fixed "Utils.lang_negotiator".

2nd edition of Zope 3 book available!
by Philipp von Weitershausen 02 Dec '06

02 Dec '06

I'm proud to announce that -- as the first Zope book ever -- my book titled "Web Component Development with Zope 3" has been released as a second edition and is now available from online and local bookstores. Like the first edition, the new book is targeted at all web developers who want to get into Zope 3 or learn more about Zope 3 and Zope 3 technology than they already know. It's accompanied by an extensive example application that's extended throughout the book. *Unlike* the first edition, the second edition is... - up-to-date. The book covers the latest Zope 3 release, Zope 3.3, which has only been released recently. All chapters, all examples, and the appendices have been revised to match the most current Zope 3 codebase. - bigger. Five (!) new chapters, all describing new features in Zope, have been added, many others were extended notably. In total, the book is more than 80 pages thicker than the old one -- at the same price as the old one. - better. With the second edition, the book has been completely revamped. My excellent reviewers from the Zope and Plone community have done a tremendous good job at improving the book's language and technical details. I also improved the didactics in various places. - for you! No matter if you're a Zope 3 developer or just starting to get into Zope 3, I suggest you keep the book under your pillow. Even as a Zope 2 or Plone developer, you'd be surprised how much Zope 3 technology you can now use in Zope 2 -- and this book tells you how! This makes it a must-buy especially for Plone developers as Plone 3.0 is using Zope 3 components for all new development. Find out more at http://worldcookery.com. Philipp -- http://worldcookery.com -- Professional Zope documentation and training 2nd edition of Web Component Development with Zope 3 is now shipping!

Zwiki release process
by Simon Michael 01 Dec '06

01 Dec '06

Dear Zopistas and Zwiki fans, There will be no Zwiki release today; I haven't had time to work on the project. I apologise for being less active lately. I expect to put some more energy into it soon, but in the meantime if anyone wants to step up and take on some project/release management responsibility, to get things moving faster, that could be very useful. Please contact me if you're interested! Otherwise I will probably change the release schedule and process a bit to suit my current work/personal situation. Best wishes to all -Simon
