Since I introduced it a week ago I have made a few changes to plonenext that make it even simpler to develop and test against upcoming Plone releases: you can now specify which branch to checkout when adding development eggs ,and there is a convenient utility to update your plonenext environment.

If you are not aware of what plonenext is: plonenext is a tool that at any point in time gives you a view of what the next Plone release will look like, and to make it easy to test against that. This is very different than what ploneout/plone-coredev provide in several ways:

   * ploneout/plone-coredev use the current development code of
     everything. plonenext only uses development code for things you
     tell  it to.
   * updating ploneout is incredibly slow. updating plonenext is very fast.
   * plonenext accuruately reflects the next plone release at any
     moment, which means it provides a much better test environment for
     new code.


You can get plonenext here: http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/plonenext/3.2

More documentation can be found in the README: http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/plonenext/3.2/README.txt
