Release Notes

Tested with	Plone 2.1.2
State	Final release
License	ZPL

This release of zForum in Plone is a unique combination in a sense that zForum does not require its own "content types" since all of them are provided by the SQL/Python back-end and API, this allows zForum to be somewhat "autonomous" and in some ways not too "plone-aware". On the other hand, with just a few hooks (emulating zForum's "right nav" as one portlet or slot, zForum can be talking to Plone seamlessly (and sharing users).
