Release Manager Thierry Benita

This new release contains many fixes for collaborative use.

  • on locks management (linux and windows)
  • on save : there were issued when users save on close. With certain combinations of MS Windows XXX and MS Office XXX, files were not saved back to zope (windows).
  • MS Plugins have been removed as they are not reliable on some MS Office versions.

This version contains new options. You should totally uninstall older versions, including configuration files (~/.zope-external-edit under linux) before installing this one.
