Feature enhancements in this release

The following features are associated with this release:

#1: Allow editing and deleting of content

Implement features to allow members to edit and delete their own conversations and replies, and for managers to edit and delete all content.

#10: Show a subset of the personal info

Implement a simple signature feature.

#11: Sorting improvements

Ploneboard's ability to sort lists of forums and conversations is a good starting point, but could use some minor touch-ups to improve usability.

#16: Attachments Quota and Upload file size limit

Add configuration option to set a global ploneboard quota limit in order to control zope database and therefore disk space growth.

#2: Allow rich text

In order to promote more readable posts, we believe that Ploneboard should support rich-text conversation text and reply text.

#3: "Reply with quote" function

Ploneboard would benefit from a simple "reply with quote" function that enables a user to seed their response with text from a previous message.

#5: Link instances the user's name to their profile/home page

Each time a user's name appears in Ploneboard pages, it should link to that user's home page or profile page for the Plone site.

#6: Make Ploneboard content searchable

Making Ploneboard content searchable through Plone's existing search tools seems like an obvious win.

#7: Allow delegation of forum permissions

Allow board administrator to delegate forum administration responsibilities to members.
