Work Done

• Prepared CMF 2.2 release (Jens): housekeeping completed; we will do the beta next week after Yvo Schubbe lands his remaining work on add menus.
• Make folder_contents a view driven by formlib (Charlie, Tres). Prototyped, needs commit to a branch for a review, pending Charlie's committer access.
• Proposed fix for label of "no value selected" in vocabulary-driven choice fields, including improved default text and German translation. (Charlie; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope3/+bug/269782 ).
• Ported Z3 xicken mini-CMS to repoze.bfg, as a starting point for other CMS-related work. (Tres; see http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.bfg.xicken/trunk/ ).
• Squished CMF bugs:
  • Stripped CMF content entries from ZMI Add Menu (Jens; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+bug/263525 ).
  • Merged support for iCal / vCal views for CMFCalendar events. (Charlie, Jens; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+bug/161714 ).
  • Fixed the workflow tool's setChainForPortalTypes to allow selecting the default chain programmatically (Jens; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+bug/161702 ).
  • Added a single-state workflow for 'DiscussionItems': if configured, makes them public by default. Enabled it in the CMFDefault default profile. (Jens; see https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+bug/161720 )

Proposed Work

• Merge CMFActionIcons functionality into core ActionInformation. There is no automated way to use the CMFActionIcons UI into a site (you have to edit the main_template). The AI class already has properties to support the feature. See https://blueprints.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+spec/merge-action-icons-into-default
• Add views which marshall interesting extracts of content (e.g., folder contents batches, content object properties, workflow history, etc.) to JSON. We wouldn't use the JSON in the default skins, at least at first, but it might enable others to do interesting things in their UIs. See https://blueprints.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+spec/expose-json-views
• Merge a "stripped-down" skin for use with Deliverance: such a skin should be "pure" semantic HTML (the content well plus actions as simple unordered lists). Make it available as an alternative in the default profile. See https://blueprints.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/+spec/bare-skin
