The CAWeb Publishing team has just released significant updates to the theme and the new version of CAWeb Publishing is now 1.1.0.  The primary change includes the ability to create Posts with the state template format and also the ability to form lists from those posts in the state template.  This includes the category types: Jobs, News, Course, Events, Public Profile, Exams and a new General category.  The General category gives you the flexibility to create your own format for posts but have them displayed in a list in a consistent manner.
