Description: Overview
        ========
        
        membrane is a set of PluggableAuthService (PAS) plug-ins that allow
        for the user-related behaviour and data (authentication, properties,
        roles, groups, etc.) to be obtained from content within a Plone
        site.  It does not actually provide a full member implementation, it
        is intended to be a set of tools from which a full implementation
        can be constructed.  It is meant to be flexible and pluggable, and
        easy to adapt to different deployment scenarios. It is not meant to
        be configured through-the-web-only, but to be adapted by filesystem
        code.
        
        membrane tries to take a step backwards and re-think some of the
        Plone membership-handling. We have tried to make it as simple as
        possible, so that grasping and extending it is simple. Hopefully,
        simplicity should also make it easier to make sure it is secure.

        Vision
        ======
        
        membrane is a product to enable users as content in Plone sites, in
        collaboration with PlonePAS. The name gives you an idea of the intended
        complexity and amount of code.
        
        membrane won't be the only member handling product in your site, instead it
        should enable us to easily plug in products that enable default Plone member
        policy, or more exotic setups in corporate intranets. This means that to get
        the default Plone behaviour you will need something else in addition to
        membrane.
        
        
        Requirements
        ============
        
        - Plone 3.3 or better.  Currently tested primarily on Plone 4.2.
          Works on Plone 4.3 (beta) as well.
        
        
        WARNING!!
        =========
        
          Currently, a catalog is used to index the interfaces implemented by
          the objects in the portal.  However, interfaces are specified
          programmatically, either via Python code or ZCML.  Any time Zope is
          restarted, interfaces may have changed, and, if they have, the
          catalog will have become out of date.  Work is under way on a more
          robust interface lookup solution, but for now if you change the
          interfaces implemented on any membrane related type or object, you
          may need to explicitly reindex the 'object_implements' interface on
          the membrane_tool.
        
        
        Changelog
        =========
        
        2.1.7 (2013-03-01)
        ------------------
        
        - Fixed broken release that was missing README.txt file.
          [maurits]
        
        
        2.1.6 (2013-03-01)
        ------------------
        
        - Removed ``getUserAuthProvider`` from ``IMembraneTool`` interface.
          Replaced it with ``getUserObject`` which has been the method to call
          for a few years.
          [maurits]
        
        - Add handling of new keyword argument ``fullname`` passed by
          ``plone.app.controlpanel.usergroups.UsersOverviewControlPanel`` for
          ``enumerateUsers(...)``. This avoids finding all membrane users on any
          searchterm in sharing tab or user control panel.
          [saily]
        
        
        2.1.5 (2012-09-13)
        ------------------
        
        - Moved to github: https://github.com/collective/Products.membrane
          [maurits]
        
        
        2.1.4 (2012-04-13)
        ------------------
        
        - False user property values were being converted to empty strings which would
          cause the property sheet to treat them as strings and make it impossible to set
          these properties back to True.
          [cah190]
        
        
        2.1.3 (2012-02-27)
        ------------------
        
        - Bugfix. The catalog processor called by collective.indexing doesn't unindex users
          from the membrane_tool. [jcbrand]
        
        
        2.1.2 (2011-12-16)
        ------------------
        
        - Fixed problem that occurs after upgrading the SearchableText index
          of the membrane_tool, which happens after upgrading to membrane 2.0
          or to Plone 4: the membrane_tool catalog would be empty.  Now we
          refresh the membrane_tool catalog when we upgrade the index.  If
          this has already happened to you, it should work to just go to the
          membrane_tool, then the Advanced tab, and click on 'Update Catalog.'
          [maurits]
        
        
        2.1.1, 29 November, 2011
        ------------------------
        
        - Made the getUserObject method private for better security.
          Use ``portal_membership.getMemberInfo(user_id)`` when you need something
          similar in a skin script or template.  Or ``@@pas_member`` on Plone 4.0+.
          Problem reported by Richard Mitchell, thanks!
          [maurits]
        
        
        2.1.0, 15 November, 2011
        ------------------------
        
        - Restored compatibility with collective.indexing 1.8 or earlier.
          [maurits]
        
        - Added a normalizer lexicon that does case normalization.
          getUserId and getUserName are the only places where case sensitivity
          makes sense in searches. Title and SearchableText needs normalization.
          [tesdal]
        
        - Fixed a bug where only user objects and not groups would be
          indexed if collective.indexing could be imported.
          Also added a missing check of of portal_type against listMembraneTypes
          before performing re/un/indexing.
          [tesdal]
        
        - Add compatibility with collective.indexing 2.0a1.
          [hannosch]
        
        
        2.0.2, 26 April, 2011
        ---------------------
        
        - In the unindexObject patch when collective.indexing is used, when
          the object is no membrane object, try to unwrap it, as it may be a
          PathWrapper around the object, wrapped by collective.indexing.
          Without this, stale brains may be left in the membrane_tool catalog,
          at least when using dexterity objects as members.
          [maurits]
        
        - Changed the test setup so the tests also work on Plone 4.1, next to
          Plone 4.0 and 3.3.
          [maurits]
        
        
        2.0.1, March 11, 2011
        ---------------------
        
        - Add an upgrade step to handle cases where meta_type for the SearchableText
          step has been rewritten to "Broken Because Product is Gone" which would cause
          the 2.0 upgrade step to not migrate the index.
          [cah190]
        
        
        2.0, March 9, 2011
        ------------------
        
        - Add an upgrade step to migrate from membrane 1.1 releases.
          [cah190]
        
        
        2.0b2, September 20, 2010
        -------------------------
        
        - Fix username/userid error in the PAS users plugin: doChangeUser takes a
          userid as parameter, not a username.
          [wichert]
        
        
        2.0b1, August 31, 2010
        ----------------------
        
        - Apply the collective.indexing profile when it is available.
          [maurits]
        
        - Removed the dependency on collective.indexing >= 1.1 as it was added
          to allow non-Archetypes content to be used, but it is giving
          problems with some normal Archetypes content.  If you add
          collective.indexing to your buildout yourself, we still use it and
          register our own catalog queue processor with it.  Please install it
          in your Plone Site yourself.
          [maurits]
        
        - Bug fix: when asked to return a maximum number of users, convert
          max_results to an integer.
          [maurits]
        
        - Remove deprecated workflow state category set status mapper. This should be
          implemented using a workflow based test in an IMembraneUserAuth
          implementation, not in the core Membrane code.
          [rossp, wichert]
        
        - Fix performance problems with the object_implements index using
          marker interfaces registered as utilities. [rossp]
        
          The object_implements index used to use the ZCA to find out not only
          what interfaces an object provided, but what interfaces an object
          could be adapted to out to the second order (adapting two objects).
          Providing this degree of magical awareness proved to be a large
          performance problem.
        
        - Remove BBB method to migrate the list of membrane types from
          archetypes_tool to membrane_tool. [rossp]
        
        - Use ZCTextIndex for the SearchableText index. This fixes problems with
          unicode data.
          [wichert]
        
        - Modify the property plugin to handle property adapters returning
          None and pure dictionaries. Even though the PAS interface does not allow
          it this is common behaviour.
          [wichert]
        
        - Use collective.indexing to update the membrane_tool catalog data. This
          allows non-Archetypes content to be used.
          [wichert]
        
        - Refactor PAS plugins to only depend on the generic interfaces. This
          removes the dependency on Archetypes.
          [wichert]
        
        - Use `plone.indexer`_ to manager indexable attribuets.
          [wichert]
        
        - Update GenericSetup import handler to gracefully handle sites without a
          membrane_tool installed.
          [wichert]
        
        - Improve package description, RESTify the changelog.
          [wichert]
        
        - Move GenericSetup profile and step registration to zcml.

        - Tested with Plone 3.0-3.2 [rossp]
        
        - Add a warning about upcoming changes to object_implements
          [rossp]
        
        - Deprecate the category mapper support [rossp]
        
        - Deprecate AT assumptions [rossp]

          [witsch]
        
        - Fix AttributeError bug when the search term is None [claytron]
        
        - Distinguish btn substring matches and case-insensitive matches
          for userid and username when supporting case-insensitive logins
          [rafrombrc]
        
        - Only use the membrane user factory plug-in for users for whom
          membrane provides authentication.
          [rafrombrc]
        
        
        1.1b3 Released July 23, 2008
        ----------------------------
        
        - Fix issue with retrieving unnamed user adders.
          [witsch]
        
        - Remove counter again as the membrane tool inherits from Plone's
          catalog tool, which already has support for a counter.  Keep the
          test and caching helper, though. :)
          [witsch]
        
        
        1.1b2 Released July 22, 2008
        ----------------------------
        
        - Add a counter to the membrane tool which can be used as a cache key as
          well as a convenience helper for quickly memoizing adapters and tools.
          [witsch]
        
        - Have rolemanager and groupmanager search for exact userids.
          [mj]
        
        
        1.1b1 Released May 22, 2008
        ---------------------------
        
        - Initial egg release.
          [rafrombrc]
        
        
        - removed deprecation messages in Plone 3.0 (Zope 2.10): Import of
          zope.app.annotation turned into zope.annotation
          [jensens]
        
        
        1.0b1
        -----
        
        - Introduced IUserChanger interface to separate the password
          changing from the user addition and deletion portions of
          IUserManagement. [rafrombrc]
        
        - Completed general implementation of roles, groups, properties
          plugins. [rafrombrc, jhammel, rmarianski]
        
        
        0.3
        ---
        
        - Added a IUserManagement interface (from PlonePAS) to the
          usermanager.  It will be available to implementations that
          provide the corresponding IMembraneUserManagement interface
          directly or through adaptation.  This allows thing like
          PasswordResetTool to work.
        
        - Renamed package to 'membrane' from 'Membrane' to reflect current
          standard python naming conventions. [rafrombrc]
        
        - Major refactoring to use Zope 3 component engine to glue
          together all the pieces.  Mix-ins have been converted to
          adapters, providers are defined by implementation of specific
          interfaces. [rafrombrc]
        
        
        0.2-alpha
        ---------
        
        - Made Title in membrane_tool a ZCTextIndex too, so that
          enumerateGroups() of membrane_groups works without exact_match.
        
        - getUserName and getUserId indexes in membrane_tool are now of
          type ZCTextIndex, allowing us to do exact_match=False queries in
          MembraneUserManager.enumerateUsers.
        
          PluggableAuthService.enumerateUsers recommends treating id and
          login as "contains" search tokens, but with our text index we
          can only do "starts with" searches.  However, that's much better
          than returning () for every call that has "exact_match=False".
