Segue 1.7.0 Released
94658
Segue is an open source collaborative content management system designed for e-learning that combines the ease of use of course management systems with the flexibility of weblogs for creating various types of sites including course, news, and journal.   This new version includes a number of bug fixes as well as introduces three new features:  1. Segue Dashboard We have redesigned the Segue home page to include a view of Recent Activity which displays a list of Your Recent Edits and a list of  Recent Discussions across all your sites.   These lists should give you a quick view of exactly what you have done most recently as well as what others are posting on content you have enabled for discussion.  We have also better organized the listing of sites on your Segue home to make it easier to find your sites or sites you can edit.  2. Content Versioning Segue will save previous versions of content so if you or one of your editors make changes that you don't like you can revert to a previous version.  You can also choose to allow others to view previous versions as well as compare selected versions.  Segue keeps track of the number of revisions as well as their authors and will highlight differences between selected versions.  We expect these features will be particularly useful for collaborative site development.  3. Custom Segue Themes For those of you with experience with XHTML and CSS, it is now possible to develop new themes for Segue.  This update adds a new "custom css" theme that gives you full control over the style sheet allowing for far more customization than was possible with other themes.  We hope you find these new features useful as well as relatively easy to use.  We welcome your feedback, comments or suggestions, as these help us improve Segue, identifying problems and determining  what is most needed.  See: https://sourceforge.net/projects/segue

Travis Swicegood is teasing us with some output from a script in his latest blog post:   So my free time of late (what there is of it) has been spent on a project that's getting really close to v0.1 release. In other words, its first functional release. If you've ever run a test using the PEAR installer or know what a .phpt file looks like, you might be able to guess what I've been up.   Keep an eye on his blog for more information on his "secret project".

Users of Firefox yesterday began receiving notices of the availability of version 2.0.0.7, which the Mozilla organization said addresses a vulnerability involving Apple's QuickTime plug-in. In BetaNews tests of the new version this afternoon, the vulnerability in question appears to have been fully patched.

The Symfony project has made a major announcement today - with the latest release of the project, they've made it to the 1.0 mark! Symfony version 1.0 has been released!    At last, the long-awaited 1.0 stable version of symfony is just released. For all those who waited for the "stable" status to dive into symfony, the time has come.   The 1.0 is not just another release. We call it an "enterprise" release, which means that we will keep on maintaining it for a long time (that is, for several years). When a new release of PHP comes with its wagon of BC break, we will update symfony 1.0 to make it compatible. When a bug is found and corrected in one of the components of symfony 1.0, we will update the stable release to make the symfony experience always better.    Congrats go out to the >entire team and all of the many, many contributors to the project. Hitting a stable release is no easy mark and it's great to see one of the best PHP frameworks out there hit it dead on.   Oh, and help spread the word - add your digg!

Felix Geisendorfer has a quick tip for CakePHPers out there today - an update to the framework that might cause a "gotcha" moment in your code:   Just got bitten by this one when updating to the latest version of CakePHP. If you use code [checking to see if the return from a save() is true] in your app, you're in for a surprise. Because as of revision 5895 Model::save() now returns Model::data on success if its not empty.   He notes that most developers don't seem to do it this way, but it tripped him up enough to where he wanted to share it with the CakePHP community so they'd know. Check out the comments on the post for other issues that might be caused by the change.

As Chris Hartjes points out there's a new release of the popular PHP framework CakePHP (as well as a new web site design).   While speaking with nate last night via IM, he told me about the latest set of changes for CakePHP 1.2. There is simply just too much to mention, so I suggest heading on over to the brand-spanking-new CakePHP home page and checking out the changelog.   You can grab the latest download directly from the homepage or look into the manual to find out more about the framework and how it can be used.

In a new post on the Splitbrain blog today about creating and working with Semacode and QR Codes, specifically with PHP functionality.   I was more interested in Semacode, because it looks somehow cooler than QR in my opinion. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find any free (beer and speech) PHP library to create these codes.   He did, however, find a Javascript port (from a C library) to harvest the logic from and create his own PHP class to handle the semacode creation. He notes that it's probably still a bit buggy but is offering it for download to whoever might want to mess around with it.

Conky is an advanced, highly configurable system monitor for X based on torsmo   This is the next maintenance release for Conky, prompted by bugs introduced in 1.4.6.  Also notable is changes/clarifications made to licensing.  If you have any problems with the licensing changes (ie. someone got left out of AUTHORS) please let us know.  Summary of changes is as follows:      * Check for pkg-config >=0.19     * Use timed_thread for mpd     * Fixed issue with SIGPIPE and mpd     * Updated COPYING (with more clarifications)     * Updated vim/nano syntax files.     * Added $hwmon var, similar to $i2c and $platform.     * Added var $platform which is similar to $i2c and accommodates the conversion       of many devices from /sys/bus/i2c/devices to /sys/bus/platform/devices.     * Removed config item post_21_kernel since it forced all i2c device lookups       to go to /sys/bus/platform/devices and some people may need a mix of both         i2c and platform devices.     * Clarifying licensing     * RSS support     * Wireless support for Linux  Regards,  Brenden
