Another revelation of the River Little Ouse at Lakenheath Fen is the amazing numbers of Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna); huge, indeed silvery, shoals of small ones in the shallows, mixed with Roach & Bitterling. Quite obliging. Never seen more than a few together before. #Teamfish #fish #rivers 9/24

The rename brings a distinct identity to a modern frontend with exciting work ahead, including theme separation, improved editing experiences, and continued innovation.

Same frontend. New name. Bright future.

Introducing Plone Blicca
For years, the server-rendered frontend of Plone has gone by a working title: Classic UI. As of today, it has a real name — Blicca.

Please enjoy these cooling happy shoals of beautiful Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna) with Bitterlings (Rhodeus amarus), Roach & Perch, before I turn to the continued horrors of aquatic vegetation clearance I witnessed in Burwell Lode on 31 July, swimming upstream from the Cock-up Bridge. #fish 🧵1/25
In the early July heatwave during a cooling dip in Burwell Lode, swimming down from Burwell, Cambridgeshire, shocked to find it almost #fish & plant-less until came to this astonishing fish concentration in the only reach where vegetation hadn't just been cleared youtu.be/usCSs9eIjn8. #MySwim 🧵1/13
Huge fish congregation as swum down Burwell Lode away from Burwell, Cambridgeshire into setting sun.

I haven't tried Django. Maybe I should try it in a VM.
I used Plone for a site some years ago, and it seemed reasonably good. I could use it again, with the ClassicUI/Blicca interface.
Anyone have opinions on Django vs Plone?

🐟️ Meet Blicca — the new name for Plone’s server-rendered frontend.

Formerly known as "Classic UI", Plone Blicca reflects a clear commitment: this frontend is actively developed, fully supported, and here for the long term alongside Plone Volto.

Plone Classic UI got a new name in May, at a sprint in a Styrian wine tavern. Blicca.

Johannes Raggam tells the story in Maastricht.

In the green world of Burwell Lode, among forests of Arrowhead (Sagittaria sagittifolia), lovely to come across the v silvery Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna), often staying low down, among the shoals of the predominant #fish, Common Roach (Rutilus rutilus) & European Bitterling (Rhodeus amarus).

The UI Plone grew up with is still getting new parts.

Johannes Raggam brings the news from Mockup and Patternslib to Maastricht. Mockup is the JavaScript framework behind Blicca, the UI that was called Classic until this May.

Here's the Northern Pike (Esox lucius); Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna), unusually abundant in Burwell Lode & 2 less common #fish there: Common Dace (Leuciscus leuciscus) & Bleak (Alburnus alburnus). Also saw 2 huge Common Bream by factory as predicted by fisherman friend who grew up at Burwell. 6/25

Thrill 3: my 1st ever young Tench (Tinca tinca): distinctive little blunt-nosed #fish, black spot at tail base v unlike adult, sadly the only one of which I saw lay dead where vegetation had been cleared. Also quite a few Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna) & some Bleak (Alburnus alburnus) at surface.

The name came out of the Buschenschanksprint in May 2026, after a long list of candidates and plenty of argument. Blicca keeps the Zope community's habit of naming things after fish, which is the kind of tradition a project only keeps on purpose.

Unglamorous work, and the reason any of this still runs.

If you build Plone add-ons, maintain frontend code, or just want to know where Blicca is heading, this is the 25 minutes that tells you.

Maastricht, 21–27 September.

A client asks whether the blue could be slightly different. On a Plone Blicca site that has meant copying the theme, editing stylesheets, rebuilding, reloading. A developer's afternoon, for a colour.

Here, top, you see Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna) & below, I think a young Common Bream (Abramis brama), NB smaller eye, the only one I saw on the lower 3km of the Little Ouse, as well as the rather more common Bleak (Alburnus alburnus) to be found coursing the river surface. #rivers #teamfish 7/25

Another lovely fish, quite common in the River Little Ouse between Little Ouse village & Bank Farm, is the Silver Bream (Blicca bjoerkna). They like to mill in the safety of the bankside vegetation with the shoals of young Roach & Perch, distinguishable by their big, pale eyes & long anal fin. 6/25
