Google Ads

Thursday, March 17th, 2005

To support our host for hosting us for free, Google Ads are being placed on the main website. I do not know if it will go round the site, and i hope not :D . I also do not have control over where the ads go but i hope it only stays where it is :)

Thanks

Promises Unkept

Wednesday, March 16th, 2005

I just wanted to ask for forgiveness for those who i have promised one or two plugin release. I know I promised about 2 people or more a plugin release. I was busy last weekend and did not have time to do anything for myself, but i plan to pack it up and release it as soon as i get home this weekend. I will also try and add the read me file to them this week so that i just have to release them when i get home.

Thanks

Admin Panel Changes

Sunday, March 13th, 2005

To those who might have the development version of the Uniform Server, the one that was released a while ago to Beta Tester, I will just like to point out that there will be some major changes in the Admin Panel.
As most of you know by now, we will be having 2 versions of the Admin Panel. A Lite version, which will come with the server installtion, and a Pro version that can be downloaded and installed seprately. Currently what I do know is that both the Pro and Lite version will have differnent layouts/theme schemes.
The Pro version which was included in the last development release to Beta Testers will also be going through some major changes. Since we have a problem with the navigation system, we will be removing the default one and replacing it with another. The reason to this is because the normal nagivation system does not work well under Firefox and it seems like we also have a JS error under Firefox so we will just have to make a new nav.
Currently I have started the Lite version which also includes a Language System and also a Uniform Server Configuration System to configure the Admin Panel and also other parts of the server.
Everything we are working on has been put on hold for this version of the Admin Panel. The Lite version is needed because as soon as Taras fixes the Process32 bug, we have to make a quick release since it seems like we are a little behind.

Beta Center
The Beta Center is also being worked on currently and a reply has been posted to the thread in the Developer Forum. The current status is 25% but if we are not going to be integrating it with the main website layout then the status will be bumped 50%.

Java Servlets
I have been trying to get this plugin to work, but as you know i need the Java SDK which the PC I use during the weekdays does not have, and is only powered by a dial-up internet (meaning, I cannot download something like that because it will take forever), but i plan to download the SDK at home during the weekend and install it via my enclosed hard drive.

This are the only updates i have for now. More news/updates will be posted later.

A look into the future

Thursday, March 3rd, 2005

I would just like to unleash my future plans or what i think the Uniform Server should have or be in the future. oO

Before i start, I would like to say Congrats to our big brothers at XAMPP for releasing the Mac version of their software. ;)

To get back to the post, here we go:

UniUpdate/Plugin System: I have been planning and working on this with a very good user of the Uniform Server, Thomas (ungamed), but lately I do not know the status of the program because I have not heard from him for a while (maybe he went on vacation or travelled?). The UniUpdate/Plugin system will allow you to update your Uniform Server installation and also download/install plugins fast and easily.

Feature Request Completion: Finish all feature requests. Currently, I am working on the Java Servlets Plugin and later plan to move on to the Python support. :D

Admin Panel: I have been working on this for a while and though most have not yet seen the new Admin Panel, most have experienced it firsthand. A new version of it is also in development, and there may be 2 versions. A Lite and a Pro version of the Admin Panel. This would allow us to shrink the size of the server by about 1/4 or at least 1/5 :)

Linux Version: This is a possibility. As most people have read on the new website, “words are leaking”. I actually planned this myself but do not know if it is possible or if it I will get a chance yet.

Language Control: The planning of the new Admin Panel has this. We plan to make it multi-lingual and also easy to translate.

That is all for now but i will be sure to update this post when everything else comes back.

Thanks
