Grok (Toolkit) 1.2 released!
by Jan-Wijbrand Kolman 26 Oct '10

26 Oct '10

Hi, The Grok development team is happy to announce the Grok - also know as the Grok Toolkit - 1.2 release! This release took a huge effort from the Grok development team to reduce the number of (legacy) dependencies, most importantly removing a very large number of zope.app.* packages from the stack! This results in a smaller and more manageable footprint. The Grok (Toolkit) 1.2 uses zc.buildout-1.5.2 and the new features it brings. Most importantly, the possibility to safely use the system Python for creating new projects. This should especially help newcomers who want to try out Grok. We can simplify the installation instructions by leaving out the "virtualenv" steps. The Grok (Toolkit) 1.2 is based on the Zope Toolkit 1.0 release! The Grok (Toolkit) does diverge a little from the ZTK 1.0 for a couple of its dependencies. These are listed separately in the Grok Toolkit versions file that can be found here: http://grok.zope.org/releaseinfo/1.2/versions.cfg The list of changes can be found here: http://grok.zope.org/doc/1.2.1/changes.html To upgrade existing project you might find the upgrade notes helpful, to be found here: http://grok.zope.org/doc/1.2.1/upgrade.html The 1.2 release will __not__ bring two still long awaited changes: * Support for the latest martian version. * The improved template registry merge. They will have to wait for the 1.3 release. Another important note: Because of the update to zc.buildout-1.5.2 and other structural changes, the new grokproject version will not be able to install projects for Grok < 1.2. We realize this release will bring quite some structural changes that might affect your projects in some way. Please let us know when you run into problems upgrading your projects on the grok-dev mailinglist or on the #grok IRC channel. We will try to help and it will also help us, the Grok developers, by fixing bugs and other issues. Enjoy! Kind regards, jw

Zope Toolkit 1.0 release
by Jan-Wijbrand Kolman 13 Oct '10

13 Oct '10

Hello. On behalf of the Zope Toolkit release team and the Zope community, I'm happy to announce the release of Zope Toolkit version 1.0! You can read more about the release at http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/releases/overview-1.0.html. The first ZTK release supports all of Python 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6. To use the ZTK release, you can use: [buildout] extends = http://download.zope.org/zopetoolkit/index/1.0/ztk-versions.cfg http://download.zope.org/zopetoolkit/index/1.0/zopeapp-versions.cfg This release focuses on cleaning up the ztk and zopeapp package lists by deprecating packages that are not used by any of the frameworks that use the ZTK. It should provide a stable set of libraries that are known to work well together and for the frameworks to expand on. We post our meeting notes at http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/releaseteam/index.html. Feel free to start discussing with us on this mailing list. Kind regards, Jan-Wijbrand Kolman
