The problem with the alpha and beta releases in the past were basically phases of long-term development. I know that the Zope 2 development is pretty unorganized (things happen when they happen). We should move your proposal somewhere to wiki.zope.org for having it as a reminder. From what I know of other consumers of Zope 2, it seems Haufe doesn't have a need for any of the Zope 2.12 features at this point, but is using Zope 2.11 / Zope 3.4 as a development base. There is no special need for a Zope 2.12 release from the Haufe side - we still have to catch up :-) Andreas begin:vcard fn:Andreas Jung n:Jung;Andreas org:ZOPYX Ltd. & Co.

When it comes to a roadmap for Zope 2.12, I should probably comment on the Plone-side of this. I'm the current interim release manager for Plone 4.0 and there is a good chance I will end up being the final release manager for the Plone 4.x series. A final decision on this is pending due to our community processes. Plone 4.0 does not have a concrete roadmap yet. The general direction is in favor of making a true real step forward with Plone for the next major version. What that will mean in terms of features, depends on what is going to be written and contributed in the end. But we will allow major backwards incompatible changes in the release. We will not attempt a rewrite of Plone. Time-wise we are not very likely to see a Plone 4.0 final release anytime in the next 12 months. We will see development preview releases and these will most definitely all require Zope 2.12 and Python 2.6. So from a Plone perspective there is no demand for any soon feature freeze or release of Zope 2 itself. Alpha releases might come in handy during spring next year, but even beta versions are not going to be required or particular useful to us. >From what I know of other consumers of Zope 2, it seems Haufe doesn't have a need for any of the Zope 2.12 features at this point, but is using Zope 2.11 / Zope 3.4 as a development base. I don't know the current status of Silva or if there are other major players left using Zope 2, which would benefit from a soon Zope 2.12 release. Please speak up, if you want to influence the roadmap for Zope 2 ;) Hanno ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
