I am pleased to announce the release of

   PloneCollectorNG 1.0 RC1 (PCNG)

PCNG is a bugtracking system for Plone. It is based on the concepts and
ideas of CMFCollector and CMFCollectorNG but it is a complete re-write.

One major highlight of this new version is the built-in TTW editor for
Archetypes schemas. This means you can edit the complete fields for your
issue (field types and widgets) through-the-web including the use of
schemats etc. Another goal of the new implementation was to focus on
security. So I dropped the old workflow and created a new one (which is
much simpler). The codebase is very small and generic and therefore very
much extensible for the future.


Changes since 1.0 beta 3:

  - lots minor UI changes and tweaks

  - full i18n support for German

Requirements:

  - Plone 2.0 (Plone 1.X untested)

  - Archetypes 1.0.1 (AT 1.2 is *not* supported yet; please don't ask me
    when AT 1.2 well be supported. It's done when it is done)


   ATTENTION:

     If you upgrade from an earlier release of PCNG you should re-install 
the product
     using the Add/Remove products in the Plone setup.



    ATTENTION TO USERS of Plone 2.0 beta 3:

      portal_workflow has been removed in Plone 2b3 from the action 
provider list.
      This is a *big problem* and will be fixed in the next Plone release.
      To fix this:

       - remove the "deleteActionProvider()" call in
         CMFPlone/setup/ConfigurationMethods.py line 175

       - *recreate* your Plone 2.0 site (if created *with* Plone 2.0 beta 3)

       - there is currently no support from my side to re-enable the
         portal_workflow as action provider for Plone sites created under 
Plone 2.0 beta 3
