2.2.0-beta (2009-12-06)

• no changes from version 2.2.0-alpha

2.2.0-alpha (2009-11-13)

• moved the Zope dependency to version 2.12.0b3dev

• Worklists: The catalog variable match setting can now be a formatted string (as before), but also a qualified TAL expression, meaning it has a prefix like “string:”, “python:”. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+bug/378292)

• exportimport: Support for instance creation guards and manager bypass added. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+bug/308947)

• Cleaned up / normalized imports:

  o Don’t import from Globals; instead, use real locations.

  o Make other imports use the actual source module, rather than an

  intermediate (e.g., prefer importing ‘ClassSecurityInfo’ from ‘AccessControl.SecurityInfo’ rather than from ‘AccessControl’).

  o Avoid relative imports, which will break in later versions of Python.

• Strip trailing newlines in order to properly match with a msgid when translating transition descriptions.

• Workflow UI: Remove ancient cruft to accommodate the proprietary (and long dead) base_cms product.

• Worklists and Transitions: Add icon expression properties to worklist and transition actions and their GenericSetup profiles.

• Fixed an import error (Products.PageTemplates.TALES is gone on Zope trunk). Because we require Zope >= 2.10, we don’t need a BBB conditional import.

2.1.2 (2008-09-13)

2.1.2-beta (2008-08-26)

2.1.1-beta(2007-12/29)

• Testing: Derive test layers from ZopeLite layer if available.

• AfterTransitionEvent now passes along the new status of the object, just as StateChangeInfo passes on the new status to after-transition scripts. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/490)

2.1.0 (2007-08-08)

2.1.0-beta2 (2007-07-12)

• moved the Zope dependency to version 2.10.4

• Remove antique usage of marker attributes in favor of interfaces, leaving BBB behind for places potentially affecting third-party code. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/440)

• Merged patches from Martin Aspeli to enable generating events before and after DCWorkflow transitions, and in the ‘notify’ methods of the workflow tool (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/461).
