Silva 1.5 released 2 february 2006 -- Infrae has just released version 1.5 of the Silva content management system. Silva 1.5 is the first Silva release that really starts using Zope 3 technology in the core, and is the first step in a longer evolution. It does not have a lot of externally visible feature changes, but focuses on making Silva work with Zope 2.8 and Five 1.2. Some of the changes: * Silva now uses Zope 3 interfaces. SilvaLayout (to be released) does not have to create Zope 3 marker interfaces anymore. * Silva now uses the Five/Zope 3 i18n architecture. PlacelessTranslationService is not in use anymore. * Use Zope 2.8 style ZODB transactions. * Some view code has been converted to be based on Zope 3 views. Some adapters have been converted to be true Zope 3 adapters. See doc/developer_changes.txt in the Silva core package for more details about these changes. And of course a lot of bugs have been squashed: see HISTORY.txt in the package for complete details. What is Silva?
