Bugdar.
As of now, Edoc 2.0 is feature-complete and everything should be ready for release. I’m now going through and testing all of the functionality to make sure that I’ve ironed out all the bugs I can before I release it. Also, I’m preparing the materials for the www.iris-studios.com site for the release: updating the product page, homepage, etc. and when those are finished I should be ready to release Edoc 2.0! I expect to release Edoc over the weekend or very early (Monday or Tuesday) next week.
Of course, once Edoc is released work on Bugdar 1.1 will get underway. I’m very excited to start knocking off things on my private to-do list and on the public bug tracker. I’ll post regular updates on how work is progressing as I’m developing Bugdar 1.1. I’ll also let you know when the email notifications system is done so that those who are interested can use that feature in the alpha/beta version.

Edoc.
I have just finished the style used by Edoc’s administration section. This will also be used in Bugdar 1.1 when it’s converted to use ISSO2:
View the New Style
However, the new style is only truly great-looking in Firefox and WebKit (Safari) browsers. It will look decent in Opera 9, and it will look not-so-decent in Internet Explorer 6. The major thing that breaks is the tabs; but they don’t even break function-wise, just display-wise.
Now the only thing left to do before releasing Edoc2 is implementing the new navigation system.

Edoc.
Time for another development update. At the moment, everything has been finished feature-wise for both Edoc and ISSO2. I’ve been testing and looking for bugs for a few weeks now and have not run across any show-stoppers. Currently, the only thing keeping me from release is finishing off the new navigation framework that’s used by the Printer module, as well as the new style to go along with it. I want to make sure that these are designed well because the components will be reused again in nearly every ISSO application. I’m hoping to have the entire project finished off by the end of the week, with a release very late this week or early next week.
And, of course, once Edoc and ISSO2 are out the door, work on Bugdar 1.1 will go into full swing. I cannot wait to start implementing all of the ISSO2 goodies into Bugdar–it’ll make the code so much more pleasurable to work with, namely the API system.

Because I have now received a few requests to open up my SVN repositories (the earliest one was today), I have done so now that I’m nearing the time to release Edoc 2 and ISSO2.
So, I have opened up the following repositories:
It should be noted, however, that Bugdar’s development for 1.1 has not yet started in full-swing. This will happen once Edoc 2 is released.
As for the release of Bugdar 1.1: development will go into full-swing in about two weeks from today (I am extremely busy this week and will not be here at all next week). In that time, Edoc should be finished up so that will be released (I’m extremely close). And as the most requested feature is notifications, I will be sure to work on implementing that as the first feature. Once Bugdar 1.1 development commences, I’ll be posting more regular updates here to inform you on it’s progress. I’d expect the final version of 1.1 out sometime in early-to-mid July, but you’ll be welcome to get the SVN version any time.
And finally, a note about SVN versions: any of the code that is checked into SVN is not guaranteed to work. I don’t have a strict committing policy of only checking in fully-functioning items. You have been warned.

If you have ever opened an Iris Studios source file, you see something that looks like this:
/*=====================================================================*\
|| ###################################################################
|| # $HeadURL: https://dev.iris-studios.com/svn/isiwww/trunk/index.php $
|| # $Id: index.php 273 2006-01-03 05:44:57Z rsesek $
|| ###################################################################
\*=====================================================================*/
If you have ever visited the URL, you’ll know that you are greeted with a password prompt (after getting the unsigned certificate notice :D). In the next few days, I think I’ll be opening up the source repositories to Bugdar, ISSO, and Edoc.
I figure that it’s in the open source tradition to open up source trees, and such I feel that since those three products will all be released under the GNU GPL upon their next major release, it is fitting to follow tradition.
Stay tuned for when the repositories open up!
