[Zope-Annce] [ANN] PloneCollectorNG 1.1.1 released

[Andreas Jung]

I am pleased to announce the release of **PloneCollectorNG 1.1.1 final 
(PCNG)**

PCNG is a bugtracking system for Plone. It is based on the concepts and
ideas of CMFCollector and CMFCollectorNG but it is a complete re-write.

PCNG is a very generic and open framework (you can configure nearly
everything TTW).

This release **REQUIRES Archetypes AT 1.3**. **Older Archetypes versions
(including 1.2.1) WILL NOT WORK**.  This major step was necessary because
a lot of Archetypes hacks in PCNG 1.0.0 were backported to Archetypes 
CVS/HEAD.


Changes since V 1.1.0



    - anonymous users could not submit new issue if participation mode has 
been set to anonymous :-)

    - Issue view:

       - links for full and simple view were displayed on all pagse. They 
appear now only in 'view' mode

       - the 'description' field was displayed as floating text instead as 
formatted text

    - the 'id' field of a collector instance can be changed through 'edit' 
(means you can rename
      the collector). Don't forget to reindex the collector catalog after 
renaming your instance
      (see maintenance tab)

    - !SchemaEditor: the ordering of fields and schematas changed sometimes 
randomly. This is caused
      by the underlaying Schema implementation in Archetypes. V 1.1.1 now 
uses its own Schema implementation
      which resolves this problem. You should use "Update collector schema" 
from the maintenance tab to
      fix this problem. Something like "Schema: ....!PCNGSchema...." should 
be displayed after the update
      process

    - Support for portal_factory added (Persistent collectors and issue 
instances will be created *after*
      the user submits the first form. This feature is optional and can be 
configured through the portal_factory
      tool.)

    - edit forms: the SELECT elements of some edit forms sometimes did not 
show the right value (mostly
      in migrated PCNG instances)...fixed

    - preliminary XML export for issues added (pcng_issue_xml method)

    - misc fixes in the Graphviz code (broken in 1.1.0)

    - i18n code adjusted to official !TranslationService API (thanks for 
Simon Eisenmann and Christian Heimes
      for listening to my needs and endless !PlacelessTranslationService 
hacking)

    - **ATTENTION:** If you are using !PlacelessTranslationService then it 
is required to update your PTS
      installation to the latest PTS version available from the Collective 
CVS (sf.net/projects/collective).
      A tar-archive with a suitable version can be found in the download 
section of PloneCollectorNG).
      Any other version of PTS will not work and result in errors


Volunteers wanted:

  PloneCollectorNG is fully internationalized. If you want PCNG to support 
your language
  that translate the catalog file (i18n folder) to your language and submit 
it to me.

Note:

  Any user should read doc/INSTALL.txt before the installation. Upgraders 
should
  reinstall the PCNG either through the quickinstall tool or through "Plone 
setup".
