Hi there, I tagged and released Zope 2.12.0 beta 1 today (basically identical with the latest alpha but it includes ZODB 3.9.0 beta 1). I will cut an official 2.12 release branch at the time of the beta 2 release (except someone needs the trunk to be open for new developments). In general: the current trunk is closed for new features or other major changes until I cut the release branch. Ask on the zope-dev list if you are in doubt. The further release schedule basically depends on the ZODB release schedule since Zope 2.12.0 final will be released with ZODB 3.9.0 final. Andreas -- ZOPYX Ltd. & Co.
