Zope 2.12.0 released

On behalf of the Zope 2 developers community I am pleased to announce
the official release of Zope 2.12.0.

Major changes:

- Ships with ZODB 3.9
- Runs on top of Python 2.5 and 2.6 (no official support for Python 2.4, your mileage may vary)
- Fully eggified - you install Zope 2.12 directly from PyPI using *easy_install* or *zc.buildout*
- Lots of cleanup on the module level (e.g. ZClasses have gone forever - like it or not)
- Ships with the Zope component library (aka Zope 3.4)
- RESTified documentation in order to generate nice looking HTML/PDF documents using Sphinx
- lots of other small details

For more details, check:

http://docs.zope.org/zope2/releases/2.12/WHATSNEW.html

Release notes:

http://docs.zope.org/zope2/releases/2.12/CHANGES.html

Especially read the installation instructions since the installation
process is different from all other Zope versions (because of the
eggification process). Keep in mind that we do no longer provide the
traditional all-in-one source tarball:

http://docs.zope.org/zope2/releases/2.12/INSTALL.html

The official Zope 2.12 project page on PyPI can be found here:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Zope2/

If you have found a bug, please report it on Launchpad:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope2/

I would like to thank all people having contributed to this release.
Special thanks to Tres Seaver for his tireless efforts in fixing bugs
and maintaining the Zope 2 codebase and Hanno Schlichting who worked
hard and steadfast on the eggification of Zope 2 and on the cleanup of
various dark corners of the Zope 2 codebase.

In addition we launched the dedicated zope2.zope.org microsite today.
This is one of the first steps for relaunching the Zope sites (including
www.zope.org) asap.

Yeah! I added the Windows binary eggs for Python 2.4 to 2.6 to PyPi.

Thank you Andreas! Especially for making sure this release didn't grew
out-of-scope, but has seen the light of the day now :)

Someone still needs to do this for:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ExtensionClass/2.11.3

I would, but I don't have the right PyPI access...

Thanks. I added the missing binary eggs for the 2.11.2 and 2.11.3 releases.

Hi,

I have tried to install it on an windows: the egg for python 2.4

This is because there was no 2.6 binary egg.

I've just rolled one and uploaded it.

Can you try again and let me know how you go?

Any suggestion how we can better check the availablity of all related eggs?

I have some code for building the KGS on download.zope.org for a given
release tag. We might extend the code for checking the availablity of
the windows eggs for the supported Python versions...any taker?

Re: Zope 2.12.0 released [In reply to]

Hi Chris,

The installation worked smoothly. Still, I had to modify something in
the site-packages\zope\interface\common\interfaces.py file :

try:
classImplements(OverflowWarning, IOverflowWarning)
except NameError:
pass # OverflowWarning was removed in Python 2.5

Otherwise, Zope wont start because of a Python error: NameError: name
'OverflowWarning' is not defined

Thank you very much,
Dragos

This doesn't seem right. I'm running Zope 2.12 on Windows and haven't
had to modify anything.

How did you try and install Zope?

Re: Zope 2.12.0 released [In reply to]

I took the steps:

- installed Python 2.6.2
- downloaded Zope2-2.12.0-py2.6-win32.egg
- ..\Scripts\easy_install.exe Zope2-2.12.0-py2.6-win32.egg
- create a zope instance with ..\Scripts\mkzopeinstance.exe

Is this the correct way, right?

Try the virtualenv option here:

http://docs.zope.org/zope2/releases/2.12/INSTALL.html#installing-zope-using-easy-install

It sounds like you have old cruft in your site-packages which is
tripping Zope up...

Chris,

You were right; I tried on a fresh Python 2.6.3 installation and it
worked - Zope instance started without errors.
