SilvaNewsNetwork changes

  2.6 (unreleased)

    New Features

      - Moved the "new version" button in the editor screen below the
        feedback text, as opposed to nestled in the corner next to the
        text. This because a Silva trainer reported that a trainee
        couldn't figure out how to make a new version. Now it's more
        obvious, hopefully enough.

      - added the end date/time and location properties of Agenda
        Items to the agenda item add screen.

      - added the location property of Agenda Items to the public view

      - working with Zope 2.10 (ala merge 2.4-zope-2.10-branch)

      - registering content via 'silva' zcml directives

      - worked up SilvaNews interfaces a bit

      - Added a SilvaNewsCategoryFilter asset, which can be used to
        limit the category lists in Filters and the properties tool in
        the News Item editor.

      - refactored the viewers, merging shared code

      - Added metadata columns for frequently accessed newsitem data
        (including get_intro!)

      - Refactored News/Agenda viewers:
        1) to use new metadata columns
        2) each of the three public views (standard, archive, search)
           uses a shared macro to render the items, ensuring consistent
           display between all three views.

      - eliminated all calls to getObject() (catalogbrain) in the
        filters -- since it's a "slow" operation, the cases where this
        was required are now using the additional catalog metadata
        columns.

      - Added rss.xml and atom.xml views, based on the Silva 2.0
        rss.xml Container view.  These use the framework laid out for
        container rss, and include extra tags for silvanews specific
        metadata (location, start,end dates)

      - rss.xml and atom.xml also work for RSSAggregator

      - Removed XMLBuffer, as it is no longer used

      - added interfaces INewsViewer and IAgendaViewer. These
        interfaces can be used by SilvaLayout/Five to provide special
        views for news/agenda viewers.

      - InlineNewsViewer was updated with some Z3 features, e.g. using
        the Z3 interface lookup.

      - The default INV formulator form and view templates have new
        features including: containing div id and class, specifying
        article level, optional image thumbnail, where and whether to
        place links to articles, and possible a few others.  If you're
        using the default INV, you should refresh the template by
        going to the each INV's url and adding '/refresh',
        e.g. http://server.com/silva/inv/refresh
        

    Bugs fixed

      - Changed the new version button in the editor screen from an
        input to a button, to avoid css conflicts with frontend.css
        controls styles

      - 176581: removed Category Filter preview tab, and registered a
        "dummy" public view for this content type

      - 160505: SNN News Publications cannot have addables settings.
        It should, being News Publications inherit from Publications.

      - viewers displayed items in reverse order when using multiple
        filters

      - Improved (simplified the css of) the properties toolbox layout

      - fix for broken rss feed caused by get_intro() not getting the
        model

      - using 'get_intro' for RSS feeds introduced a bug in at least
        some RSS feeds. This has been worked around.

      - fix in NewsFilter.get_next_items, to catch _all_ agenda item
        cases

      - Publishing using the "publish now" button on the edit tab for
        news items was slightly broken.  The resultant page returned
        after this action had a <base> tag set to the news item
        version instead of the news item itself, breaking navigation
        links.

  2.5.1

      - Made layout of the INV (Inline News Viewer) more generic using standard 
        Silva html classes

      - Fixed space above kupu more robustly, so other extensions can control
        the feedback space too.

      - RSS Aggregator public view: removed hard coded table and replaced with 
        standard Silva html rendering

      - Update publish controls with new layout. Still to be fixed is the 
        switch from a publish now checkbox to a publish now button

      - Fixed some query variable names in the AgendaFilter

      - Fixed i18n support

      - AgendaItems spanning over a period of more than one month are now 
        displayed the whole period rather than only the last month

  2.1.2

    Bugs fixed

      - Fixed support for code sources (external sources) in news items.

  2.1.1
  
    Bugs fixed

      - Fixed some documentation issues: some version numbers were wrong.

  2.1

    Bugs fixed

      - Added upgrader for a specific Zope 2.8.x issue, where some ZCatalog
        indexes had a new attribute defined, but the upgrader for that 
        attribute wasn't executed when required.

    Features

      - SilvaNewsNetwork now works on (and depends on!) Silva 1.5.

  2.0.2

    Bugs fixed

      - Fixed Kupu ExternalSources support in news items. Thanks to Andrew
        Altepeter.

      - Fixed bug where upgrader was registered for the wrong meta type. Thanks
        to Marc Petitmermet.

      - Added dummy upgrader for 1.2, which makes that the upgrades are
        actually ran when the data version is 1.2 (works around a bug in
        Silva's upgrade registry).

  2.0.1

    Bugs fixed

      - Added missing upgraders for 1.3 (or below) to 2.0.

  2.0

    Features

      - Kupu editor support for news items (replacing the widget editor)

      - Name change from SilvaNews to SilvaNewsNetwork

  1.3

    Features

      - In each item in a news viewer, the first image of the item's content 
        (if available) is displayed as a thumbnail.

      - Removed all tables from the public views to more easily allow styling
        and layouting with CSS (note that this changes the layout of the public
        views!)

      - Added a new checkbox in Agenda Items, 'display time', to control 
        whether the time part of start and end date/time is displayed in
        the public views, allowing times of 00:00 to be displayed.

      - Added a couple of new fields to service_news to allow displaying
        dates and months in a certain locale and format (this is a global
        setting rather than a per-user one, because Silva content currently
        can not be presented in more than one language it doesn't make sense
        to display dates and months in different languages).

      - Added a new field 'display_datetime' to news items, rather than using
        the publication date/time to determine if and where an item is
        displayed in a news viewer, this display date is used, e.g. allowing
        re-publishing of an item without moving it in the public view of news
        viewers.

      - Agenda items are now displayed according to the end datetime, if 
        available, so that an item disappears from the list of 'current events'
        when it ends rather than when it starts.

      - Subjects and target audiences now have a title, which allows changing
        the way they are displayed without having to update stored references
        to them (so you can now 'change a subject' and still have newsviewers
        display the correct list of items).

      - Rather than displaying the first subheader encountered in the news item
        and the first paragraph encountered (which enforced a certain structure
        on news item content to make the viewers display the items correctly)
        news viewers now display the first *bit* of the news item, regardless
        of the type of elements that contains. Note that this requires some
        changes in the public templates (the subheader() and lead() methods 
        have been replaced by one called 'get_intro').

    Bugs fixed

      - The 'number of items to display' field on news viewers used to limit
        the number of items displayed in the archive, which made certain items
        not get displayed anymore, this is not fixed.

  1.2

    Features

      - Updated SilvaNews to work with Silva 1.2

  1.1

    Bugs fixed

      - Changed the names of indexes so they're less likely to clash with 
        names of user-generated objects - SEE UPGRADE.txt!

  1.0

    Bugs fixed

      - Fixed 'select all' in edit tabs.

      - Fixed some small template issues so it works correctly with Silva 1.0.

      - Problem in some DateTime argument formatting solved that made viewing 
        certain objects result in an IOError when Silva was running on Windows
        Zope installations.

  0.9.1

    Bugs fixed
 
      - Silva News really depends on Silva Document, not just Silva core.

  0.9

    Features

      - RSS 1.0 overviews on NewsViewers and Aggregators.
        By adding /rss to the URL of a NewsViews, one will
        get the RSS 1.0 feed for this viewer or aggregator.

      - Removed the RSSViewer (replaced by the RSSAggregator).

    Bugs fixed

      - Fixed just about all Silva 0.9.3 conversion issues.

    Note: SilvaNews 0.9 is incompatible with previously released
    versions.
