[Zope-CMF] [dev] CMF 1.5 - current state

[yuppie]

Hi!


More than 2 months ago Tres wrote a nice summary of the roadmap discussion:
<http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-cmf/2004-March/020363.html>

I'll try to summarize the current state of the suggestions mentioned in 
that mail. Would be nice to get some feedback:

- What are the issues that block the 1.5 beta release?

- Who is working on these issues and how much time do they need?

I'm becoming impatient ...


Cheers,
	Yuppie

AFAICT this was the least common denominator and a necessary first step 
for further changes. More will not go into the 1.5 release.

Some backported code from Archetypes was checked in on the 
at_reference_backport branch. Don't know what the current state of that 
branch is.

Hope Tres will find some time to land this soon ;)

Almost done. For better integration with CMF Default an updated 
standard_mappings.py and some new icons would be useful.

Seems nobody is working on this.

Done.

Almost done. The API is added and CMFDefault's 'folder_contents' allows 
to sort and order the sub-objects. index_html still does not respect the 
defined order.

Seems nobody is working on this.
