I have merged these two branches to their respective trunks: z.i: https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/checkins/2011-September/057121.html z.c: https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/checkins/2011-September/057124.html If no one has issues with this, I will make releases of both within the next few days. - C _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
