Stop setting CLIENT_HOME as a builtin, get it via App.config.getConfiguration().clienthome instead.

Drop OFS.History functionality.

Removed OFS.ZDOM. OFS.SimpleItem.Item now implements getParentNode().

Removed the App.version_txt.getZopeVersion API, you can use pkg_resources.get_distribution('Zope').version instead.

On the application object, removed PrincipiaTime in favor of ZopeTime and PrincipiaRedirect in favor of Redirect or ZopeRedirect.

Removed bobobase_modification_time from Persistence.Persistent, you can use DateTime(object._p_mtime) instead.

Raise BadRequest instead of returning MessageDialog.

Update available HTTP response code, 302 is now called Found.

Refactor browser:view and browser:page directives. This makes their implementation more similar to that in zope.browserpage and adds allowed_interface support for the browser:view directive. By default the aq_* attributes are no longer available on those views/pages.

Removed the last remaining code to support SOFTWARE_HOME and ZOPE_HOME.

Simplified instance skeleton, removing old Extensions, import, lib/python and Products from the default. You can continue to manually add these back. (Products requires ZServer to be usable.)

Remove the zopectl script.

Document running Zope as a WSGI application.

Remove Connection and Transfer-Encoding headers from WSGI responses. According to PEP 333 WSGI applications must not emit hop-by-hop headers.

Ensure that the WSGIPublisher begins and ends an interaction at the request/response barrier. This is required for instance for the checkPermission call to function without an explicit interaction parameter.

Make the WSGIPublisher normalize HTTP exception classes based on name (for example, any exception named NotFound will be converted into zExceptions.NotFound). This restores compatibility with similar behavior of the old publisher.

Change the WSGIResponse exception methods to raise exceptions instead of returning responses. This includes notFoundError, forbiddenError, debugError, badRequestError and unauthorized.

Add support for exception views to WSGIPublisher.

Add support for ConflictError and TransientError retry logic directly into WSGIPublisher, thus repoze.tm2 and repoze.retry are no longer needed and no longer supported.

Removed mime-types option from zope.conf. You can use the add_files API from zope.contenttype instead.

Removed various persistent product related code and options.

Split a WSGI part out of zopeschema.xml. This reduces the supported zope.conf directives when run under WSGI. If a directive is now unkown it might have been moved to the ZServer package. See https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZServer/blob/master/src/ZServer/Zope2/Startup/zopeschema.xml for the directives which are supported via ZServer.

Remove profiling support via publisher-profile-file directive.

Changed the value for default-zpublisher-encoding to utf-8. If you set a different value for management_page_charset consider changing default-zpublisher-encoding now.

Removed the enable-ms-author-via directive which was only required for very old web folder implementations from before 2007.

Changed zope.conf default settings for python-check-interval to 1000.

Five.browser: Marked processInputs and setPageEncoding as deprecated. processInputs was replaced by the postProcessInputs request method and the charset negotiation done by setPageEncoding was never fully supported.

Add support to SameSite cookie in ZPublisher.HTTPBaseResponse: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-west-first-party-cookies-07

Optimized the OFS.ObjectManager.__contains__ method to do the least amount of work necessary.

Optimized the OFS.Traversable.getPhysicalPath method to avoid excessive amounts of method calls.

During startup open a connection to every configured database, to ensure all of them can indeed be accessed. This avoids surprises during runtime when traversal to some database mountpoint could fail as the underlying storage cannot be opened at all.

Explicitly close all databases on shutdown, which ensures Data.fs.index gets written to the file system.

ZPublisher: If IBrowserPage is provided by a view, form input is decoded. This makes it easier to use zope.formlib and z3c.form in Zope 2.

Fix reflective XSS in findResult.

Patch zope.interface to remove docstrings and avoid publishing.

Don’t copy items the user is not allowed to view.

Quote variable in manage_tabs to avoid XSS.

Allow handling of multipart requests in functional doctests using http.

Fix Content-Length header for non-ascii responses incl. a base tag.

bobo_traverse of ProductDispatcher did not correctly invalidate cache when a product was not initializes after first access of the cache. Types that were added in test-profiles were not useable.

Prevent leaked connections when broken EndRequestEvent subscribers raise exceptions. (#16)

Made sure getConfiguration().default_zpublisher_encoding is set correctly.

Fix publishing of IStreamIterator. This interface does not have seek or tell. Introduce IUnboundStreamIterator to support publishing iterators of unknown length. (#28)

Removed the (very obsolete) thread lock around the cookie parsing code in HTTPRequest.py; the python re module is thread-safe, unlike the ancient regex module that was once used here.
