CPS 3.3.0 (devel branch) released CPS 3.3.0 has been released. This is the first devel release since CPS 3.2.0 (stable) was released in september 2004. Of course, the development has been available in real time using CVS: * http://cvs.nuxeo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/CPS3/ * http://cvstrac.nuxeo.org/ What's new in CPS 3.3.0 ? * CPSCore refactoring * I18n of content (multilingual documents and containers) * Start of CPSSkins integration * More unit tests, including regression tests * Stack workflow * OpenOffice.org integration * CPSUserFolder now does everything that NuxUserGroups used to do * Lots of CPSSkins work (full CPSSkins integration to be done in CPS 3.3.1) * Webmail improvements * TypeMaker improvements * Calendar improvements * Subscriptions improvements * Numerous XHTML / CSS fixes * Zope 2.8 and CMF 1.5 compatibility fixes (must be tested!) * Many more (more than 2000 commits since CPS 3.2.0) Download urls We have made two packages: CPS-3.3.0.tar.gz for CPS 3.3.0 with CMF 1.4.7 and CPS-3.3.0-cmf15.tar.gz for CPS 3.3.0 with CMF 1.5.0. We only have made extensive tests with the former. We expect, however, to switch to CMF 1.5 when releasing CPS 3.3.1. We need your help in testing CPS 3.3 with CMF 1.5 to ensure that CPS 3.3.1 doesn't have bugs related to the CMF 1.4 to 1.5 switch.

FSDumpTool 0.1 released
by Brent Hendricks 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Connexions is pleased to announce the initial release of FSDumpTool. What is FSDumpTool? =================== Inspired by Tres Seaver's FSDump, FSDumpTool is a CMF tool for exporting and importing content between the filesystem and the ZODB. How does it differ from FSDump? =============================== - It's bidirectional: FSDumpTool supports both exporting *to* and importing *from* the filesystem. - FSDumpTool is designed specifically for CMF content objects. It allows you to configure "dump" parameters on a per content-type basis. - Easily extensible through pluggable "Dumpers" to handle various metadata properties (currently supports DublinCore. Help wanted writing Dumpers for workflow state, local roles, etc.) Where to find it? ================== FSDumpTool development is sponsored by the Connexions Project (http://cnx.rice.edu) and may be downloaded here: http://software.cnx.rice.edu/downloads/zope/FSDumpTool/ CVS access is available through the collective on SourceForge: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/collective/FSDumpTool/ Feedback and contributions welcome Brent Hendricks -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly removed from pure thought-stuff. He builds his castles in the air, from air, creating by exertion of the imagination. Few media of creation are so flexible, so easy to polish and rework, so readily capable of realizing grand conceptual structures." -- Frederick Brooks, Jr., The Mythical Man Month
