Hello all, 

Zope 2.2.0 alpha 1 has been released - you can download it from
the usual place on Zope.org:

http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.2.0a1/


*Note that for alpha releases we package only a source release
and a win32 binary release since win32 users generally don't
have a compiler readily available.*

This release contains the new changes to the Zope security 
model to protect against the server-side trojan issue:

It also contains the new help system, a built-in Zope tutorial 
and many bug fixes. For more information, see the CHANGES.txt 
file for the release:

http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.2.0a1/CHANGES.txt)

Note: sites that allow untrusted users to edit DTML or other 
executable content will need to set object ownership appropriately 
after applying the new release for the new security rules to protect 
you. See the document "upgrading to Zope 2.2" for this and other 
important upgrade information:
