@tikitu Good point. At this stage I was mostly interested in making the case, that using AI poses ethical dilemmas. It's easy to get sucked into a detailed technical debate, with software engineers ;-). So I'm trying to establish a baseline first.

The nuances you're bringing up are great though. I'd love to explore those deeper, once the second piece is out. I'll be trying to get together some interested people for video calls on that, in both the #plone community and the #asynco network. Shall I send you an invite, once that is getting set up?

Modern add/edit forms with #Plone Classic (server-side rendering)

PoC implementation of Dexterity add/edit forms for #Plone content types based on #SurveyJS. Fresh, modern and shiny look and feel, highly customizable like row-wise grouping of fields. This z3c.form stuff is so sick and outdated and so early-2010ish. We need decent user interfaces...and this is not Volto (we do not use Volto).

ZODB has served the Zope and Plone community for over two decades. But its storage model β€” opaque pickle blobs and BTree-based catalog indexes β€” hasn't aged well. You can't query your data with SQL. You can't inspect object state without unpickling. And the catalog is a black box that lives inside the very database it indexes.

Time to change that. Four modules, one mission β€” get ZODB out of the pickle jar.

ZODB out of the pickle jar

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away It is a period of agentic coding in the FOSS galaxy. Chats with AI are abused to produce flooding AI slop. Striking from a cluster of senior developers hidden between the billion slop-coders of the big corp, agentic craftsmen of the FOSS community won the first victory in a battle with the powerful floodings of the outside fleet of coders. The big corp fears that another contribution could bring a thousand more free software projects into the agentic ...

Plone Security Advisory 20260116 - Attempted code insertions into Github pull requests

It has come to our attention that around the end of last week (January 9th), a Github Member account has tried to sneak in malicious code into our code base with several Pull Requests within the Plone organisation. So far we found three instances where this happened, but it was spotted before a merge could happen: https://github.com/plone/volto/pull/3444 https://github.com/plone/volto/pull/7736 https://github.com/plone/plonetheme.barceloneta/pull/428 The Security- and Admin-Teams too...
