Plone 2.1 has an incredible amount of improvements — from the tiniest details to the this-changes-everything features — to make your user experience better.

Some of these unassuming ones with a great impact include:

• You can restrict what content types are addable in a folder on a per-instance basis
• Color coding of states to make it much easier to keep tabs on security
• Automatic short name / ID generation on content items
• Automatic content section generation

Covering all the features and improvements could fill a small book, but you will feel it when you start using the new release — Plone 2.1 is an effortless, polished and productive Content Management System.
