I'm happy to announce the newest bugfix release for Zine, the Python powered blogging engine. Tons of patches went into it and we also got a new Portuguese translation. Furthermore the POSIX integration was improved so that we can expect Debian packages soon.

Here a detailed list of changes:

• zine.importers.rewrite_import properly accepts a string as first argument now.
• Fixed the config page for ascii_slugs. Ticking/unticking the checkbox resulted in an internal server error.
• fixed a bug in the WordPress importer with comment dates.
• fixed a bug in the ZXA exporter. Among other things tag exporting did not work properly.
• importer no longer creates new users if a user was selected in the dropdown.
• fixed importing of ZXA feeds with tags.
• improved importing of ZXA feeds (importers import the correct syntax instead of HTML now)
• fixed wrong content type exporting in ZXA feeds.
• fixed bug in tag-cloud query. Too many items were counted for each tag.
• fixed tag Atom feed.
• Atom feeds for the index now only contain posts of the types for the index page as configured.
• added Brazilian Portuguese translation.
• Fixed the bug that made it impossible to set the slug to the publication defined on new entry creation.
• ZEML handles newlines in elements properly now.
• optimized some queries.
• Under some circumstances text after elements appered multiple times in ZEML.
• the information export page strips confidental information in database URIs now (passwords).
• the text parser no longer supports images and youtube links for security and sanity reasons.
• Fixed a bug where changing the comment parser did not trigger the parsing.
• Fixed some display bugs in the admin panel for webkit.

Thanks a lot to all contributors, especially Vinicius Figueiredo and Pedro Algarvio for the new Portuguese translation and Brynjar Magnusson for the submitted patches.
