GAZ Private RC 1 Release Discussion
I have just uploaded GAZ RC 1 to the download area for the private testing team.
This release marks a milestone for GAZ development as we exit the Beta stage and enter the Release Candidate stage. An RC release means that the feature set is frozen and as far as I can tell, it is good enough for release. It does not mean that the release is stable yet - it just means that it is as stable as I can tell There were very few issues to fix since last release, it was primarily a matter of finishing the features. Since there is already documentation (though it needs vamping) and it is already phrased (report any un-phrased text), I think we are in a pretty sweet spot to go into gold. Known issues:
Please do not post bugs in this thread. Post all bugs in the tracker and start new threads for troubleshooting discussions. If I do not hear from you over the next week, I will assume you are no longer a part of the private testing team and I will remove the license from your manager to give to another person (which I have already done once ) Let's get this baby to gold Thanks. |

Geek, have your newsletters started going out nightly as of yet? We haven't seen any (checked local spam filters), but will check all possible filters if you say that you're sending.
Have done some testing and will report as per usual. Susan |

They have been going out. Last one I got was issue #5 yesterday afternoon. Looks like the next issue will get generated around 1am GMT and then sent out as people come to the site and activate the send cron. It looks like my generator cron may need to be changed to a higher amount?
You can see the last 3 newsletters that have gone out here-> http://www.thevbgeek.com/newsletter.php There isnt much difference between them though as the snapshots are happening pretty frequently. You can also take a peek at the documentation here-> www.thevbgeek.com/geeki hell... you can even pitch in There does seem to be a couple of oddities still about but nothing I have had too much time to dig into. I have it set up on another of my very active sites sending weekly issues to 13k members. So far so good but the last issue that was auto generated was blank (but others have been fine) - so there is something happening (or not) there. Ill be out of town from tomorrow afternon until Friday (maybe Thursday night). Give me a shout if you guys stumble over anything. In the meantime, Im off to go work on GAL some more (I have spent ~70 hours the past couple of weeks rewriting it from the ground up and it is looking sweet) Toodles all |
