[TYPO3-ttnews] tt_news version 2.5.0 released

[Rupert Germann]

hi,

after quite a long time there's a new tt_news version in TER.

Important changes in tt_news 2.5.0
* New feature: category trees in BE are expandable and collapsible now
(requires xajax)

* New feature: added a new backend module called "tt_news category manager"
(Requires TYPO3 4.0). This module is located under web/info. It shows the
complete category tree - of course expandable and collapsable - and offers
drag and drop for moving and copying news categories. Thank goes to: CNV
(Christelijk Nationaal Vakverbond) for sponsoring this feature.

* New feature: "Exclude already displayed news". The new TS
option "excludeAlreadyDisplayedNews" allows you to place multiple news
plugins on one page where the plugin itself takes care that no newsarticle
is displayed twice. This feature makes the options "excludeLatestFromList"
and "listStartId" obsolete. If "excludeAlreadyDisplayedNews" is
enabled "excludeLatestFromList" and "listStartId" will be ignored.

* New feature: added the category tree to be_users and be_groups records.
Now it is possible to select the allowed and visible categories for a
certain be_user/group with the category tree. If categories are selected in
the be_user/group records the TSconfig
settings 'options.useListOfAllowedItems', 'tt_newsPerms.tt_news_cat.includeList'
and 'tt_newsPerms.tt_news_cat.allowedItems' have no effect anymore. (thanks
to netcreators.nl for sponsoring this feature)

* And many bugfixes and other small improvements. see the complete changelog

or in the main directory of the extension.
