[Xerte] Re: Xerte Online Toolkits v3.1

[Ron Mitchell]

Hi John

on behalf of the development team thanks for your comments. Indeed while we
were developing and testing v3 we all concluded that we almost hated going
back to 2.1 because the benefits and flexibility of v3 were so obvious and
so powerful.

 

Although in his message to the Xerte lists Julian has described addressing a
number of small issues and mentioned a couple of new contributors, actually
we have also added a few key new features the most important of which in my
mind is the ability to make all text in the main interactive template
responsive. There are a couple of new page types since the v3 release too.

 

If you're using Xerte encourage those who look after your installation to
apply the update.

 

Season's greetings and best wishes.

 

Ron

Thank you very very very much for the new version 3.1 of Xerte Online
Toolkits.
I must admit I was a little skeptic about what advantages 3.0 would bring
over 2.x so my expectations weren't that high when I installed 3.0 on my
server. Oh man was I proven wrong. 3.0 turned out to be a great and
fantastic version with an unexpected increase in productivity.  
I would like to thank everyone involved with the development of XOT. You all
did a fantastic job.

I would also like to wish everyone a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
May 2016 bring everything everyone needs and even more.

Best regards,

   John Bijnens

Hi,

 

The Xerte Project's community of developers is proud to announce that
version 3.1 of Xerte Online Toolkits is now available for download from the
community site at http://www.xerte.org.uk. 

 

Version 3.1 is an incremental update that addresses a number of small issues
that surfaced following the release of v3.0 back in the summer: in
particular thanks to Len Johnson for his work on improving the installer,
and to John Horne at Plymouth for sending through a number of fixes and
patches. As always we'd recommend users upgrade their installations to the
latest code.

 

This has been an incredible year for The Xerte Project: we've joined the
Apereo Foundation and the Open Source Initiative, and firmly established the
software as a viable and sustainable open source project; we've released
version 3.0 with significant enhancements to the editor and several new
templates, and we've seen our community of users and developers continue to
grow. 

 

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the project this year, and to
everyone out there I wish you a very merry Christmas,

 

Julian
