Introduction
============

plone.app.discussion aims to be the new commenting system for Plone. It was 
initially developed as part of the Google Summer of Code 2009 by Timo 
Stollenwerk (student) and Martin Aspeli (mentor).

plone.app.discussion is an add-on product for Plone 3.3.x and 4.0.x and will be
shipped as part of Plone 4.1. 

.. note::

  Make sure you pin down plone.app.discussion to versions < 2.0 if you want to
  install it as an add-on product (see install instructions below for more 
  details).

Please report bugs to the `Plone bug tracker`_.
