[Zope-CMF] CMF Maintenance

[Andrew Sawyers]

I created a new folder type which filters 'allowed' content types for this
type of site policy; if there's interest I can get it made into an
installable product sometime this week and put the tarball online.

In a standard CMF installations, all content types are protected
by the same permission "Add portal content".
Separate out news items (search the mailing list for "ContentInit",
to find out how to do this) and protect it by its own permission.
Refuse this permission everywhere, except where you accept news to
be created.

I am sure, your users will not like to need to go to one of these
destinations
in order to create a news item. They probably will expect a global
action that creates a news item in such a destination.
