[Zope-CMF] ANNOUNCE: CMF 1.2 Beta 2 released

[Andrew Sawyers]

Hello all,

  CMF 1.2 Beta 2 has been released.  The CMF 1.2 beta 2 release can be
downloaded from http://cmf.zope.org/download/CMF-1.2beta2.  CMF 1.2 beta 2
is the last beta release we plan before the final release next week.
  This beta contains numerous bug fixes:

-- Notable Bugs Fixed --

 - Fixed a bug where the workflow notifyCreated method was called during
manage_afterAdd in PortalContent, making it possible for the notification to
occur on the wrong workflow. The notification has moved to the
contstructInstance method on the TypesTool after the _setPortalTypeName
method has been called on the object.
  - Fixed a bug in Favorites.getObject to use restrictedTraverse on the
portal object.
  - Fixed setting the Link.format to URL_FORMAT so the initially returned
metadata headers would return text/url properly. Added unittests.
  - Fixed CMFDefault.utils.parseHeadersBody to properly handle the headers
generated on a windows app (i.e. Dreamweaver) with /r/n; added the compiled
regular expression object to the method signature.
  - Added full webdav sipport code to Link.py. Changed _writeFromPUT to call
_editMetadata instead of editMetadata.
  - Cleaned up emission of RFC822-style headers (Tracker #407), terminating
headers must be terminated with CRLF, and padding continuation lines (for
values with embedded newlines) with leading whitespace).
  - Added external method update_catalogIndexes.py to run as part of a
upgrade to CMFs migrating to Zope2.4+ from from CMF sites which were built
using Zope2.3 catalog
  - Use ID to label Favorite when target has an empty Title (Tracker #440).
  - Allowed sub-folders to have different syndication properties than
parents (Tracker #421).
  - Added CMFDefault.Upgrade.upgrade_decor_skins external method to convert
existing sites which had installed skin directories from the now-deprecated
CMFDecor product (Tracker #434). Added note explaining the issue, and the
workaround, to ISSUES.txt.
