I am pleased to announce the release of

   CMFCollectorNG 0.20 beta1

CMFCollectorNG is a Zope/CMF-based bugtracking system (based on
CMFCollector).

Major features of CMFCollectorNG:

    * major code cleanup and complete new skins
    * very generic to add new ticket properties to a tracker
    * enhanced tracker configuration through the web
    * extend usage of the CMF memberdata tool to store user informations 
and user preferences
    * rewritten transcript to keep issue related informations in an 
abstract format
      to produce different output (HTML, plain text for email notifications)
    * tickets can have references to other tickets (also across 
CMFCollectorNG instances)
    * dedicated views for uploaded files and references to other tickets
    * better roles management:
          o TrackerAdmins manage the tracker
          o Supporters can file tickets, create followups, upload files,
            add references to other tickets
          o Reporters can file new tickets and upload files and references
    * XML export (to be used with XMLRPC)
    * watchlist/monitoring functionality
    * Plone compatibility
    * much more minor improvements (too much to mention them :-) )


Changes since 0.20alpha1:

    * completed English UI
    * better CMF and Plone compatiblity
    * lots of minor fixes
