[Zope-CMF] [ANN] PortalTransforms 1.0 alpha2

[Sylvain Thénault]

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce the second alpha release of the Portal
Transforms Zope product. It provides two new CMF tools in order to
make MIME types based transformations on the portal contents and so an
easy to way to plugin some new transformations for previously
unsupported content types. You will find more info in the package's
README and docs directory.

This product is part of the Archetypes project, but the only
requirement to use it is to have a CMF based site. If you are using
Archetypes, this package replaces the transform package.


What's changed since 1.0a1
--------------------------

- the package now also works as a standalone package outside Zope. A
  Python distribution without all zope specific files will be
  available. 

- added some developper oriented documentation.

- a lot of bug fixes, among them :

  - make transforms chains working within zope

  - fix word, command and xml transform

Look at the package's ChangeLog for a more detailled list.

Contribute !
------------
Please contribute your transformations so we'll be able to provide a
great transformations base ! I'll try to make available some
developper oriented documentation until the 1.0 final to make that
easier. Until that it shouldn't be too hard to write your own
transform by looking at the interfaces and at the existant ones ;)


Enjoy !
