CMF 2.1-alpha (2006/10/09)

New Features

• CMFDefault utils: Added getBrowserCharset function. Returns the charset preferred by the browser. Strings encoded with this charset are decoded correctly by Five.browser.decode.processInputs.
• Content: Added IFactory utilities for all content classes. They are now used by default instead of the old constructor methods.
• FactoryTypeInformation: Added support for Zope3 style factories. If the product property of a type info instance is empty the factory property is interpreted as an IFactory name.

Bug Fixes

• CMFCore.ActionInformation: don't use a fixed set of properties for ActionInformation. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/232/)
• CMFCore.CatalogTool: Use current executable's proxy roles, if any, in place of user's roles when computing allowedRolesAndUsers for a query. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/380)

Others

• skins: Changed encoding of translated portal_status_messages. Now getBrowserCharset is used to play nice with Five forms. Customized setRedirect and getMainGlobals scripts have to be updated.
• FSFile: Added registration for txt extension.
• Profiles: All profiles are now registered by ZCML.
• ZClasses: Removed unmaintained support for ZClasses. Marked the initializeBases* methods as deprecated.
• Content: All content classes are now registered by ZCML. ContentInit is still used to register oldstyle constructors.
• Favorite: Added handleFavoriteAddedEvent subscriber. This replaces the manage_afterAdd hook and some code in addFavorite.
• CMFCatalogAware: Added handleObjectEvent subscriber. This replaces the deprecated manage_afterAdd, manage_afterClone and manage_beforeDelete hooks.
• setup handlers: Removed support for CMF 1.5 CMFSetup profiles.
