Hello,


Infrae is happy to release Silva 0.9.2!

Silva is a (Zope based) web application for content authoring,
management and publication - for web, paper, and other media. Content
is stored in clean and future-proof formats, independent of layout and
presentation, suitable for use in multiple contexts.

For more information on Silva see:

   http://www.infrae.com/products/silva

   http://www.zope.org/Members/infrae/Silva

Silva 0.9.2 provides extensive new functionality (see also the
HISTORY.txt file included in the Silva Product) such as:

* Thoroughly revised user interface.

* Completely new, flexible metadata architecture.

* All text - including metadata - is stored as unicode.

* Everything is now indexed using the Zope catalog.

* Increased performance, both for public views and for the Silva edit
screens.

Due to changes in the content structure this version will not work
with existing Silva content. This version includes a content upgrade
script (see INSTALL.tx and UPGRADE.txt for detailed instructions).

Although this content upgrade script has been tested succesfully on
fairly large amounts of Silva content, it is always a good idea to
backup your content before installing and using this new Silva version
(e.g. by making a backup copy of Zope's Data.fs file).

Please report any bugs and other issues to Infrae and discuss this
version on the Silva mailinglists:

   silva-general@lists.sourceforge.net

   silva-dev@lists.infrae.com
