Re: Removing profile selection in plone-addsite view

I think there are use cases for profile selection when creating a plonesite
see http://www.ploomcake.org/en/software-selection

Is it possible to mark profiles as 'site-setup-profiles' or something
similar so that those would show up (and all others only in the advanced tab)?

As an aside in Arnhem we discussed the possibility of such 'site-setup-profiles'
in a smaller round to improve plone setup for specific tasks (before
we were aware
of ploomcake) such as 'Blog', 'Intranet' etc.

If you save the living environment, the biodiversity that we have left,
you will also automatically save the physical environment, too. But If
you only save the physical environment, you will ultimately lose both.

1) Don’t drive species to extinction

2) Don’t destroy a habitat that species rely on.

3) Don’t change the climate in ways that will result in the above.
