The CMF developer community and Zope Corporation are pleased to
announce the release of version 2.0.0-beta of the Zope Content  
Management
Framework (CMF). This release is intended for testing purposes only;
we do not recommend deploying it to production servers. The CMF 2.0.0  
final
release is planned for the end of March 2006.

What's new in this release?

     This is the first beta for CMF 2.0.0, the latest feature  
release. In
     addition to countless bug fixes and minor improvements, this  
release
     features many noteworthy additions, such as:

     - GenericSetup-integration as the replacement for the CMFSetup
       technology started in the CMF 1.5-series

     - the use of Zope 3-style interfaces throughout, bridged back to
       Zope 2-interfaces where needed for backwards compatibility

     - widespread integration with Zope 3/Five technologies, and the
       folding-in of the previous CMFonFive addon-product

     - pluggable TypeInformation objects

     - new-style Actions


What is the CMF?

     The Zope Content Management Framework provides a set of
     services and content objects useful for building highly
     dynamic, content-oriented portal sites.  As packaged, the
     CMF generates a site much like the Zope.org site.  The CMF is
     intended to be easily customizable, in terms of both the
     types of content used and the policies and services it
     provides.
