Zope Corporation is proud to announce the second beta release
of version 1.3 of its Content Management Framework (CMF).

This release features:

  - A new calendar object, which manages the presentation of
    calendar events within the site template.

  - More customizability for filesystem-based skin methods.

  - Through-the-web customization of all dynamic, context-sensitive
    actions.

  - Improved tracking of content modification times (no longer
    tied to the underlying database modification time.

Plus numerous bugfixes.  The final release of version 1.3 should
follow within two weeks.


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.
