Good one! Maybe 'Snow Leonard', then? Sounds a bit geekier, which is
right. ;)

I've been considering it more our "Snow Leopard". It's got a lot of backend
cleanup, many smaller UI optimizations, a visual refresh, and the Python you already have
won't work quite right. ;)

Plone 4: The 'Stealthy Bliss Release' ?
I see it being akin to the updated Facebook iPhone App that finally respects
ones 'block' settings, so one doesn't have to read through everyone's Farmville
and Mafia updates ;)
Sometimes it's the little things that really matter to people. Apple is king
of marketing/emphasizing these. I think the best way to highlight this is
going to be through screencasts that we market, have a prominent link to from
the plone.org home page, etc., so let them begin...

Scott asks a particular question; let me raise the general one:
Plone 4.0 is really a "sucks less" release. To me, it's awesome because I know that all the many
"sucks less" improvements (not as slow, not as much memory use, more mainstream visual editor, no
silly small/large folder distinction ...) will make huge improvements for integrators, developers and users.
But, it's a marketing challenge to convey that to those outside our circle. "Plone 4: It's better at
everything that matters"?

"New default visual editor: TinyMCE"
But why is that a benefit? What was wrong with the old editor?
What problem is the new editor solving?
Without explaining the benefit of TinyMCE, I'm not sure it's a
selling point.

A few of my favorites:
Dramatic speed improvements -- see Hanno's charts. Both for
page rendering and initial load.

Python 2.6's improved memory management will decrease overall
memory footprint
New default visual editor: TinyMCE
Images and binary blobs automatically stored in file system
rather than ZODB, prevent database bloat.
New default theme, Sunburst, provides a modern, minimalist,
grid-based theme that's a better starting point for modern themes.

Hello
Two years and a half ago, Jon Stahl wrote a great post
blog named "8 Really Cool Things About Plone 3"[1]. There
he wrote about new features coming with Plone 3.
Considering there are just two weeks for World Plone Day
2010 and Plone 4 is going to be the star of the event, i
would like to ask you what are the features or things you
would add in the "8 Really Cool things about Plone 4" list.
You answer will help a lot making the great Plone 4 talk,
every host *must* have :)
Kind Regards
