[Zope-PTK] CMF?

[Michael McLay]

FYI,


The developers of Zope have renamed the Portal Toolkit from PTK to CMF, which 
stands for Content Management Framework.  The name change better reflects the 
purpose of PTK.  Too bad you weren't here for the NASA PDM meeting in 
December.  Tres was here talking about the PTK.
