The "roadmap for CMF 2.0", http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/docs/requirements/CMF20Roadmap calls for an alpha release in the very near term (before the end of the year), with a beta to follow after a suitable stabilization period. I would expect third-party products to lag a bit in synchronizing, although many of them have leadership involved in this effort (Plone and CPS, notably). > As > far as third party products, I have been generating Install type files > still will my products.

CMFQuickInstaller will likely shrink, as much of its machinery should be doable with profiles. Any remaining setup work should either migrate to profile-based setup, or at least cooperate with the setup tool, I think. The stock CMF setup already supports adding structure; scripts are not normally added in that way, but could be supported. > Sorry if this sounds like worry. It is not.

Your subclass shouldn't be much affected, as the current CMFSite class does very little (it stubs out a couple of methods to keep the catalog happy, mostly).
