Hi Jens!

CMF 2.0.0 is now out the door and I have made some updates to the
roadmap document. Please take a look and give me some feedback on the
dates (well, the only dates we have set are the dates for CMF 2.1) and
the description of 2.1:
http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/docs/roadmap/document_view
The roadmap doesn't specify the status of the mentioned changes. I quote
the CMF 2.1 section here to add my comments and questions:
Adding missing pieces to the Zope 3 integration puzzle which could not make it
into the 2.0 release for time reasons will be the main objective for CMF 2.1.
At this point the following items are planned to land in CMF 2.1:
* Local skin customization (take an item from the skins tool and customize
it for a particular CMF site instance)
Is anybody working on this? AFAICS everybody agrees we need a solution
for this, but so far we don't even have a rough proposal.
* Release CMF as Eggs
The related work is on the tseaver-pkg_resources branch, right? What's
the status of that branch?
* convert all views over to Zope 3-style views
I think we can go on converting views step by step using the patterns
used in CMF 2.0. These patterns make it relatively easy to convert the
existing skin methods in a traceable way.
But the resulting views are far from perfect. Before we can make them
the default views they need a lot of refactoring. I plan to have a look
at formlib and viewlets to find out what we can reuse in CMF.
* Make the new Zope 3-style views the standard views
This depends on 'Local skin customization' and 'convert all views'.
* Use of Zope 3-style container events throughout, removal of all manage_*
methods.
Is this already implemented on the tseaver-catalog_events branch or is
more work necessary than merging that branch?
Cheers,
Yuppie
