plone.org web site upgraded

The plone.org web site has been upgraded, and is now running the upcoming version 3.2 of Plone.

The main goals for this upgrade were:

  • Improved performance
  • Increased reliability
  • Introduction of the new PyPI-style software upload capabilities — will be detailed in a future announcement shortly
  • Clean out old content and scrub the database — it has been running since 2001, so some cruft had accumulated
  • Prepare for the upcoming redesign

If you find anything that isn't working on the site, let us know in the issue tracker for plone.org.

Massive thanks to the people that took time off from eating cookies and ice cream and helped upgrade the site over the holidays:

Kudos!
