Hi all -
As far as I know, all of the outstanding tasks to cut Zope 2.6.2 b3 are complete, and all of the items considered important to get into the 2.7 alpha 1 have been merged.
I'd like to plan to make both releases this Friday if possible, so if you know of something that I've missed that still needs to be done (for either release), please let me know ASAP.
Thanks!

Hi Brian,
I've talked to Andreas at EuroPython yesterday about the ZRest-Product, which was originally written by Richard Jones. Andreas added this to 2.7.
In my opinion we should go for a more general "TextDocument"-Content-Type, which allows switching between RestructuredText, StructuredText and PlainText (newlines_to_br).
I've looked into ZRest-Product on my travel back from EuroPython and would think, that the additional switchable-text-format-support could be easily integrated. Should I provide patches? I would also provide the missing icon for the ZRest-Product.
Another one: If I implement the described changes, we should switch ZRest to a more "general" meta_type: TextDocument (formerly ReStructuredText Document). How about that?
I think that this is no showstopper in general, but switching the meta_type could be one, if people start to work with 2.7...
Cheers, Maik
