The CMF developer community and Zope Corporation are pleased to announce
the release of version 2.0.0 of the Zope Content Management
Framework (CMF) as the first stable release from the CMF 2.0 development
branch.

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.

What's new in this 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

     - An experimental set of Five-style browser views for CMFDefault  
and
       CMFCalendar, which will evolve into the standard views for CMF  
2.1

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

     - pluggable TypeInformation objects

     - new-style Actions
