[Zope-CMF] CMF 1.5 + Breaking products / Migration from 1.4

[David Pratt]

I have recently upgraded my zope to 2.7.5 and am attempting to work  
with the HEAD of CMF from CVS.  I really want to work with this because  
the features are really excellent and this is the future - not the 1.4  
branch.  The trouble I am having is with about 8 or 10 products that I  
use.  I was able to get some of my own working again and some others  
like CMFQuickInstaller that broke mostly due to the change from  
CMFCore.CMFCorePermissions to CMFCore.permissons but I still have a  
ways to go.  The latest tracebacks on a couple of other Products I am  
having trouble with.  Maybe part of my problem is I should be tracking  
down CVS versions of some of the products too as opposed to latest  
releases.

Has anyone heard of whether people are working to have the more widely  
used products fixed to work in CMF 1.5 + or is the user base just so  
large on the 1.4 branch that there is likely to be little or no  
movement until Plone is working on 1.5 (if they move in this  
direction).  If not, I am wondering if some of the patched products  
that people are fixing to work with 1.5 could be put somewhere (even  
just temporarily until the Products developers catch up) so others can  
benefit without all the breakage and/or a list of products compatible  
with CMF 1.5 put together so people know what is going to happen if  
they choose to migrate.

Regards,
David
