The binary: http://package.enfoldsystems.com/windows/setup-plone4-4.1.0-5085-win32.exe Enfold Systems has completed a Plone 4.1 windows installer. There are a few difference in this installer than previous installers. All information is in our public subversion; so if someone wants to build Windows installers (innosetup) the information is there. Just requires the motivation. We have put a pop-up at the end of the installation to drive people to Enfold Proxy. There is now a FREE version of Enfold Proxy 7.1. This means people using Plone 4.1 & Enfold Proxy can integrate Plone into their existing IIS infrastructure as well as use SSL, etc. Our existing documentation for Proxy will be very useful to users configuring the limited/free version. On to the differences: 1. Obviously there is a pop-up which explains Enfold Proxy. We have released a free non-expiring version. We recommend everyone use it. Not only because we wrote it but also because most people want to run Plone on port 80 or with SSL. This is not trivial. 2. The windows installer uses ZEO. It creates 1 client on 8080 and zeo also runs. Previously the Windows installer only used Filestorage. We can revert this. I think we want to keep ZEO just so people can do interactive debugging. Being able to goto bin\instance debug and interactively manipulate your Plone site is very liberating. 3. The installer is not signed. This was a oversight. Since this is a automated build process instead of the one-off sidnei delight; we dont have signatures. I do not believe this is a big deal. If it is - I can look into fixing it for Plone 4.1.1. Again that binary: http://package.enfoldsystems.com/windows/setup-plone4-4.1.0-5085-win32.exe Could I request someone to upload the .exe to launchpad and add it to plone.org? cheers alan runyan & enfold systems team ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EMC VNX: the world's simplest storage, starting under $10K The only unified storage solution that offers unified management Up to 160% more powerful than alternatives and 25% more efficient.
