Hi all,on behalf of Zope Corporation and the Zope community I am pleased to announce the release of Zope 2.8.0. You can download Zope 2.8.0 from
http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.0/
Some new features of Zope 2.8:
- ZODB 3.4 with MVCC (multi version concurrency control) support.
MVCC solves nearly every problem with ZODB read-conflict errors
which is very important for high-traffic Zope sites.
- Extension Classes were rewritten as Python new-style classes making
all features of Python new-style classes available in Zope
objects. This includes support for cyclic garbage collection.
- Integration of Zope 3 technologies through Five (see
http://codespeak.net/z3/five/)
