IT Management & Software Quality Sites Association

I have, per my promise, created two venues for those who manage IT Management and Software Quality oriented Xoops Sites and would like to share links and information.

You may sign up to become a webring member at:
http://q.webring.com/wrman?ring=informationtechn&addsite

You may contribute your site to a Yellow Pages directory at:
http://eirenicon.org/modules/xdirectory/

btw. I will make the MySQL tables of the Yellow Pages available as a download from my site (in the event that you would like a copy on your site(s)).

New Page Layout Style (attempted)

Hello everyone,

I have been playing around with human interface ergonomics and screen layouts for websites. I have just opened (re-written) my two main sites such that there are now 4 major menu areas. I have used three different styles of menus- 2 based upon Flash. I could just as easily have used Java, I suppose but I prefer having less code.

End of Life for Red Hat 9.0

I'm posting this important news item to let users know that Red Hat Linux 9 distribution will reach its end-of-life for errata maintenance on April 30, 2004. This means that as of May 1, 2004 they will not be producing new security, bugfix, or enhancement updates for this product.

What affect this will have on the XOOPS community at large remains to be seen but it is worth closer investigation if you run enterprise solutions or mission critical sites in combination with XOOPS.

It is recommended that XOOPS users who run and maintain the Red Hat Linux 9.0 distibution look into migrating to the new Enterprise Linux or Fedora Project.

More information about migration choices can be found at:

Good Luck and Happy Xoopsing!

I've hacked some files of xcGallery 1.1 to make it work with XOOPS Multilanguage 1.2. Should you find any places left with no multilingo fonctionnalities, please let me know.

Also, if some other modules would need an adaptation to work with the hack, PM me.

You can download the hack here : Zip version [41 KB]

To install it, just copy the xcGal folder to your root/modules/ folder.

XOOPS CMS/Microsoft Applications Deal “Inevitable”

As found on frxoops.org:

REDMOND, Wash., March 23, 2004 -- It has recently come to light that Kazumi Ono (known as Onokazu), the Head of the XOOPS Development Team and Helton Hartford, the Development Director at Microsoft’s Application Branch, have been discussing the possibility of future co-operation between the two groups. Hartford has announced his intention to buy out the GNU license for commercial use from the well known content manager, describing the process as “inevitable.”

He was also quick to point out the value of the XOOPS platform “… the XOOPS application is by the far the safest investment in the CMS range. The announcement of XOOPS 3.0 has us all very excited, and if things go well we’ll be integrating it into our core development process as soon as 2006.”

Hartford also hinted at the possibility of discounts for existing XOOPS users who want to upgrade to 3.0 once Microsoft have taken control. This news will no doubt be of great interest to the wider XOOPS community, and will help allay fears that the platform will become unavailable to those outside of Microsoft after the merger.

However, the Development Director has said that XOOPS support sites, such as http://www.xoops.org, will not be given the chance to upgrade to 3.0 after the merger, as these sites would only serve as “unnecessary competition” to Microsoft’s own Support Centre.

Since then it has emerged that Kazumi Ono has negotiated for top XOOPS figures, such as Herko Coomans and Goghs Cheng, to be offered contracts at Microsoft in order for them to remain at the forefront of the XOOPS development process during and after the integration process.

When pressed on a date for the signing of a contract, Ono would only go as far as saying “soon.” In any case, this development is sure to send shockwaves through out the XOOPS community.

New XOOPS Image

It is with great pleasure that I bring to you this tiny little 80x15 file that weighs in at only 480 bytes (Less then 1k!)

Adding these small images to your site cuts down on load time and gives credit in a non intrusive manner that just looks cool!

Show your support and add this little tag to your site!

Resized Image

Enjoy!
