The CMF developer community is pleased to announce the release of version 1.6.1 of the Zope Content Management Framework (CMF). This release marks the latest stable release in the CMF 1.6 series and should be suitable for production use. What is the CMF? The Zope Content Management Framework provides a set of services and content objects useful for building highly dynamic, content-oriented portal sites. As packaged, the CMF generates a site much like the zope.org site. The CMF is intended to be easily customizable, in terms of both the types of content used and the policies and services it provides. What's new in this release? The 1.6.1 release represents a pure bug fix/maintenance release without feature additions. It provides the basis for the upcoming Plone 2.5 release. Where do I get it?
