[Xerte] ANN: Toolkits Beta 0.9

[Paul Beckwith]

Jules, 

We have had lots of problems being able to use the toolkits from our own
server because of having to create our own database to login users and also
because we don't know anything about ldap and only a little PHP. 

Will this new version let us just slap it onto the server and use it out of
the box or will anyone installing this version still need their own solution
for logging in?

Cheers mate, 

Paul

Hi,

An updated beta vesion of Xerte Online Toolkits is available for
download from the Xerte website. This is an incremental release,
addressing all of the  issues reported so far. Many thanks to all those
who have commented in one way or another - we're very grateful for all
your comments and suggestions.

The release version 1.0 is scheduled for January 29th, and will be a
complete build suitable for installing in your production environments.
If you have any ideas or suggestions for functionality to include in
that release version, now would be great time to let us know.

As an aside, Xerte 2.1 now contains a sample FlashDevelop project for

Finally, welcome to those of you new to the list - there are no silly
questions here.
