Some of the bug fixes in this release came from us. It's amazing how big of a pain IIS can be. Well, I guess it's not that amazing. Anyways, this script does make connecting to Zope behind IIS much easier than PCGI.
2nd Beta Release of the Award Winning (yeah, right...) Zope+IIS Connector Changes include:check it out [Zope.org]
- You no longer need to download WinHTTP 5.0 from MSDN, ASP404 should just work out of the box.
- Fix for bug that caused hangs and delays with MSIE.
- New configuration options for when IIS itself is behind a reverse-proxy or accelerator.
This is half a test post out the latest NetNewsWire Pro Beta from Brent Simmons/Ranchero. It has a weblog editor that seems pretty decent (I got it connected to Movable Type pretty easily).
I'm wondering how well it would work as just a weblog editor. I keep NNW running on my iBook since I'm trying to keep this machine as my main reading/writing machine. But there's still that need to post from other places as well. At least Movable Type allows through the web posting (Radio does too, but since it runs on the desktop, it can get hidden behind layer after layer of firewall pretty easily).
I've updated the new Toulouse RSS Feed to include full content alongside the traditional description tag, using the content module. This seems to be working out well enough - NetNewsWire reads this part just fine. I like the notion of keeping the description element small - but I also like doing a lot of my reading straight out of the news reader.
I hope soon to have some really good RSS 2 feeds flowing from Zope.org.
