hi to all who use the ZMI as a CMS-Interface,

I've released a (maybe) helpful tool for people who use the Zope Management
Interface as a Content Management System and don't want (or unable) to build
a new ZClass or Python Product for everything...

Abracadabra Object  - http://www.zope.org/Members/mjablonski/

 The "Abracadabra Object"-Product allows you to add pre-configured
 ZOPE-objects to your folders through the Zope-Management-Interface with only
 one click. 

 **For example:** You can set up a default DTML Document with your own default
 text and additional properties. Or you can set up a default Folder with
 properties and several objects already in it. When you add an Abracadabra
 Object from your 'Select type to add'-list, you can select one of these
 default objects from a list and it will be copied with a given id and title
 into your current folder automagically. 

some people reported already, that Abracadabra Object is something they've
really missed in Zope... so maybe there are others...;-)

greetings, maik.
