1.) Installation
================

deutsch:
--------
Importieren Sie die Metadaten-Datei 
"zmsgoogle_metadict.xml" in Ihr ZMS.

Legen Sie den Inhalt der Datei sitemap.xml.dtml 
unter dem Namen sitemap.xml im ZMS-Root Folder 
(Wurzelverzeichnis) als DTML-Methode ab oder 
transferieren Sie diese per FTP/WebDAV in Ihr ZOPE.

Sie koennen die Datei auch im zentralen ZOPE-Ordner
ablegen und so gleich fuer alle ZMS Instanzen
verfuegbar machen.

Registrieren Sie Ihre neue Google Sitemap - nun 
aufzurufen aus dem ZMS Content-Verzeichnis - mit 
der URL:

>> http://www.YourDomain.com/path/to/zms/content/sitemap.xml

in Ihrem Google Sitemap Account:
>> https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/

Sitemap Indexing System finden Sie bei

--------

	"zmsgoogle_metadict.xml" 
into your zms.

folder (or higher) with the content of the file 
	"sitemap.xml.dtml" 
above or transfer this downloaded file per 
FTP/WebDAV into ZOPE.

Register your new google sitemap - it is 
callable now by the URL as object under the 
/content/ zms folder - like:

http://www.YourDomain.com/path/to/zms/content/sitemap.xml

into your google sitemap account:
>> https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/

2.) Updates
===========

english:

Just overwrite both parts in your ZMS installation(s):
 - zmsgoogle_metadict.xml
 - sitemap.xml.dtml
and use the new features as changed in this release.

## important! ##
The "Google bot priority" meta tag has changed - pls
update your content if necessary.

Go to config "meta-data" and delete the obsolete
meta attributes:
- bot_priority
- Attributebot_max_nodes
this vars are obsolete and not used anymore!

deutsch:
--------
Uberschreiben Sie einfach beide Teile der Software:
 - zmsgoogle_metadict.xml
 - sitemap.xml.dtml
in Ihren ZMS Installationen und nutzen Sie die neuen
Funktionen aus dieser Release.

## wichtig! ###
Die Option "Google bot priority" musste umbenannt 
werden. Bitte prüfen und aktualisieren Sie bei Bedarf 
Ihren Content.

Gehen Sie in "Meta-Daten" und loeschen Sie die
Meta Attribute:
- bot_priority
- bot_max_nodes
diese werden nicht mehr benutzt!
