Plone 3.3 (Release candidate 3)

Tested with Plone 3
LicenseGPL
Proposal freezeOct 05, 2008
Feature freezeOct 20, 2008

Release Manager: Wichert Akkerman

After Plone 3.2 (which focused on packaging/installer improvements), this is a minor release that adds some new features. It does not include any major changes: all products that work with Plone 3.0, 3.1 & 3.2 should also work in Plone 3.3. The upgrade from Plone 3.x is simple and non-invasive, ensuring a smooth upgrade experience.
