The configure script only works with bash. :( We are working on a fix, but in the mean time, if you are running on a system on which sh != bash, then you will need to run bash explicitly, that is, run the configure script with: bash configure Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!

Zope X3 3.0 Beta 4 is available
by Jim Fulton 03 Sep '04

03 Sep '04

Zope X3 3.0 Beta 4 is available at: http://zope.org/Products/ZopeX3/3.0.0b4 Both a source release and a windows binary release are available. Zope X3 is the next generation of Zope. The "X" in Zope X3 means that it *currently* makes so special provisions for being backward compatible with or providing a transition from Zope 2. It will in the future, at which time, the X will be dropped from the name. The 3.0 release is the first production-quality release of Zope X3. The focus of this release is on Python developers. While basic through-the-web content and templating facilities are provided, the main emphasis is on supporting applications in Python. Of course, possible applications to be developed include through-the-web content management, and development environments. We expect this to be the final beta for X3.0. We hope to make the first, and hopefully last, candidate release next week or early the following week. We'd really appreciate it if people would try this release out and post any issues found in the Zope 3 Issue Collector at: http://collector.zope.org/Zope3-dev Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!

Silva 1.1 beta 1 released
by Martijn Faassen 02 Sep '04

02 Sep '04

Silva 1.1 beta 1 released ========================= Infrae has just released Silva 1.1 beta 1. Silva 1.1 includes the following new features: * XSLT support for rendering Silva objects. This adds more flexibility to the way Silva objects are presented, and when used also provide a nice performance boost. XSLT support can optionally be enabled on a per-object basis. XSLT support needs libxml2/libxslt, but Silva also continues to work if you do not have these installed. * A new XML export/system that can also export and import asset data in a zip file. * abbr and acronym support for both forms editor and Kupu. * New parser for SilvaDocument forms-based editor, using a HTML subset instead of the old-style method using special characters. This should increase the performance of the parser and makes it easier to use. Silva 1.1 beta 1 also should work with Silva News 1.0 and SilvaExternalSources 0.8, both to be found on the Infrae website. Download -------- As of this release, Silva's download site has moved off zope.org to the infrae.com website. Silva can be downloaded here: http://www.infrae.com/download/Silva/ The easiest way is to download the Silva-1.1b1-all.tgz file, and unpack this in your products directory. See the INSTALL.txt included in the Silva product for more information. For Silva extensions such as SilvaNews and SilvaExternalSources, please see the overview here: http://www.infrae.com/download/ What is Silva? -------------- Silva is a completely browser based CMS for creating publications for the web, paper, and other media. Content is stored in a clean and future-proof format, independent of layout and presentation, suitable for use in multiple contexts. Silva allows novice users to enter new documents as well as edit existing documents using a simple web interface. For more information about Silva, please see: http://www.infrae.com/products/silva

AJPServer 0.2 released
by Ames Andreas (MPA/DF) 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

Hi all, AJPServer 0.2 is released. Please look at http://www.zope.org/Members/andreasames/AJPServer for further information and the tarball. This is an 'alpha' quality release. Your testing is much appreciated. What is it? =========== AJP is a protocol for forwarding HTTP requests from web servers like Apache or IIS to web application servers like Tomcat or Zope. AJPServer is primarily meant to be used from within Zope's ZServer but can possibly also be used stand-alone (with some coding). The protocol connects Tomcat with web servers since quite a long time and should therefore be reasonably mature. Why yet another technology to connect Zope with web servers? ============================================================ AJP has some nice features I haven't found elsewhere: 1) It's rather efficient: plain TCP transport, connection recycling, binary protocol etc. 2) It's independent of the web server: the Zope configuration and the underlying mechanism remains the same regardless of whether it is driven by Apache or IIS (there is also support for Netscape's and Lotus' web servers). 3) Some neat add-on features are also available: nice web server integration, ad hoc load balancing features etc. For further information please look at the README file and the API docs distributed with AJPServer. cheers, andreas

[ANN] MailBoxer 3.3 released
by Maik Jablonski 31 Aug '04

31 Aug '04

Hi, I've just released a new version of MailBoxer (3.3). # What is MailBoxer? MailBoxer is a mailinglist-/ newsletter-/ mailarchive-framework for Zope and is easy to use and customize. MailBoxer runs all mailinglists of the German Zope User Group (www.dzug.org) with several hundred subscriptions and mails per day. # Where can I see MailBoxer working? Have a look at the zope(a)zope.org-archives mirrored by MailBoxer: http://www.dzug.org/mailinglisten/zope-org-zope/ # Where can I download MailBoxer? http://mjablonski.zope.de/MailBoxer # What changed in 3.3? - added support for Jens Vagelpohls MaildropHost (http://www.dataflake.org/software/maildrophost) so MailBoxer works transactional (no more doubled mails due to read-/write-zodb-conflicts). Using MaildropHost is the RECOMMENDED setup for MailBoxer from now on!!! Thanks to Jens for a really great product, which should be the default MailHost-Product in Zope! - added a customizable view (mail_approve) with pending requests for moderation. Please use this template instead of the old plain-text messages. If no template is found, MailBoxer falls back to the old plain-texts. I'll drop this fall-back behaviour in one of the next releases. - added a unique id for queued messages, so a accidentially page-reload won't approve / discard a newly arrived mail. - added a unique message-id for each mail which is bulked to the list, so problems under some setups with cross-posts to several lists should be gone. Thanks to Christian Theune and his inital "5-minute-hacked-patch", which needed some improvements. Hope you like it this way, Christian...;) - fixed bug: if the url given to the smtp2zope.py is not found (404) (maybe some typo in the alias-file), the mail is bounced with "user-doesn't-exist" and not(!) queued by the MTA anymore for a next retry. Thanks to Christian Theune for patch! - fixed bug: the mail-bulk-code was protected with a "historical" try-except, which could result in loss of emails when something went wrong while talking to the smtp-server. - fixed bug: the smtp-connection is now closed / reopened after each batch, so MTAs which only accept a limited number of mails per connection won't defer your mails anymore. - fixed bug: under some wired circumstances the Mail in the REQUEST wasn't marshalled as string by Zope, so string-operations were broken on the mail-data. Added a getMailFromRequest()-method which does the string-conversion, so we always have a string. Thanks to Dirk Datzert for tracking this down! - fixed bug: searchMailBoxerArchive() used unrestrictedTraverse for traversing the Catalog. Changed to restrictedTraverse. - some minor refactorings & code-cleanups. Happy mailboxing, Cheers, Maik -- Maik Jablonski Universität Bielefeld - Zentrum für Lehrerbildung http://www.zfl.uni-bielefeld.de/personal/mjablonski/
