Hi everybody,

Last week, Infrae has released Silva 0.9.3, a new major release of the 
Silva CMS.

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. Silva can also be connected to Word
using DocMa:

Silva is completely open source, coming under the very liberal
BSD license.

Silva 0.9.3 is a major release of Silva. It comes with a large list of changes
and bugfixes, including a new Ghost Folder, container title revisions,
importing assets from zip files, link object, improved parsing of markup 
in the Silva structured editor, ip-range based groups, new viewer roles, 
improved external source mechanism with parameters and caching (to be
released separately), improved unit test framework, and numerous improvements 
and bugfixes. Development-wise it marks start of a changeover from mixins to
using Zope3-style adapters. See the HISTORY file for more information about
the changes:

Please download the Silva-0.9.3-all.tgz tarball for easy installation, here:

http://zope.org/Members/infrae/Silva/Silva-0.9.3/Silva-0.9.3-all.tgz

Unpack it into your products directory, add a 'Silva Root' object to your 
Zope and go to the edit screens by clicking /edit in the Silva root.

Due to changes in the content structure this version will not work with
existing Silva content without upgrading using the built-in upgrade script.
See the included INSTALL.txt and UPGRADE.txt for detailed instructions,
