[Zope-dev] Five 1.2.1 and 1.3.2 released!

[Philipp von Weitershausen]

The Five team is happy to announce two bugfixes releases of Five
today, Five 1.2.1 and 1.3.2!


What is Five
------------

Five is a Zope 2 product that allows you to integrate Zope 3
technologies into Zope 2, today.  Among others, it allows you to use
Zope 3 interfaces, ZCML-based configuration, adapters, browser pages
(including skins, layers, and resources), automated add and edit forms
based on schemas, object events, as well as Zope 3-style i18n message
catalogs.

We've tried to keep the Five experience as close to Zope 3 as
possible, so this means that what you learn while using Five should
also be applicable to Zope 3, and viceversa.

More information about Five can be found on our website,
http://codespeak.net/z3/five/.


Changes in Five 1.2.1/1.3.2
---------------------------

* Five's traversing machinery now mimicks the ZPublisher correctly:
  When no Zope 3-style view is found, first the object's original
  ``__bobo_traverse__`` is tried.  If that does not exist, Traversable
  resorts to attribute look-up.

* Unit tests that did i18n via Localizer would fail because the
  request attribute that keeps Localizers list of preferred languages
  did not exist.
