Release Notes

State Unreleased
License GPL

At this stage of the planning process it is too early to make any promises for new features.

But some of the current ideas are:

  • Removal of portal_memberdata
  • Ship with better default member handling based on Membrane
    • Having something like Teamspace for project/team handling and project workspaces + delegated user management
  • Replace the discussion architecture with Ploneboard and/or Listen
  • Better media file handling (Video, audio) OOTB
  • Expanded Document Management capabilities
  • Improved BLOB support
  • Using eggs for product packaging and dependencies
  • Atom support in the core
    • Syncing between portals using Atom or RSS + something like MS' extensions to it
  • Power User role
  • Replacing the default theming approach with something similar to Deliverance
  • Possibility to separate content production from content delivery? Entransit etc.
  • Subscription to pages/containers (content subscription infrastructure)
  • Composite Pages?
  • Ship Plone with support for the most common auth setups (LDAP, Radius, NTLM, others?)
  • Get a better export/import story
  • Stream-based portal transforms replacement
  • Improved email framework (incoming email handling)
  • WebDAV improvements

Feature enhancements in this release

The following features are associated with this release:

#191: Unify folder implementations
