Reminder:
Today at 20:00 UTC (less than 12 hours from now) one of the Zope
Foundation-maintained servers will be physically moved to a different
data center by our hosting provider. The server will be shut down at
around 20:00 UTC and, according to the hosting provider, become
available again no later than 05:30 UTC tomorrow (Friday, May 28).
This outage will affect several websites as well as the mailing list
service. No mail sent to the lists will be lost, though, it will just be
queued up on our secondary mail relay, which is unaffected by this move.
Once the main server comes back up it will be delivered.
Services affected
=================
- the docs.zope.org website
- the download.zope.org website
- all zope.org mailing lists and the lists.zope.org website

Grok 1.1 released!
==================
Grok 1.1 is a feature release of Grok preparing for the Zope Toolkit.
The major user visible change is Python 2.6 support. Grok 1.1 supports
Grok 2.6 and 2.5. Python 2.4 support is deprecated. Note that to
install Grok on Windows, please use Python 2.6, not Python 2.5.
The other user visible change is a new version of the Grok UI. This
now uses a more extensible UI framework, and cuts down on
dependencies. You will also note that the Grok introspector has been
removed - we did this to cut down on dependencies for Grok, but we are
looking into ways to bring it back in the future.
Other user visible changes are relatively minor: see Grok's `change log`_ for
more.
.. _`change log`: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/grok
The main changes in Grok 1.1 are under the hood, however:
* Grok builds on a prerelease version of the `Zope Toolkit`_.
* New more reusable spin-off libraries Grok uses: grokcore.site,
grokcore.annotation and grokcore.content.
.. _`Zope Toolkit`: http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit
Grok 1.1 itself has not yet had a reduced set of dependencies compared
to Grok 1.0, but is a step on the way to Grok 1.2, which will reduce
dependencies significantly.
Updating Grok-based projects
----------------------------
Grok-based applications should be upgraded by using a new
``versions.cfg`` file in your project and re-running buildout. You can
also find the new versions.cfg file here:
http://grok.zope.org/releaseinfo/grok-1.1.cfg
To prepare for Grok 1.2, look at any imports your application does
from ``zope.app.*`` packages and see whether they can be replaced by
imports from a ``zope.*`` package instead. This should be possible for
most, but not all code. To learn how to improve your imports, see the
``zope.app.*`` package's changelog (on PyPI for instance), or explore
the code of the package to see where it is importing from for
backwards compatibility.
See also the `upgrade notes`_.
