Hi,

I have a custom version of CMSMS that I use for my clients, custom in that I have tweaked it according to feedback over the last year.  I would like to get the new functioinality in 1.3 and I would like to make sure that I patch the security issues. 

How difficult is iit going to be for me to merge my source with the latest release  - will it be possible?

Thanks,
Alan

this kinda depends on your tweaks

also, there hopefully won't be a 1.3
we are wanting to focus entirely on the 2.0 branch after 1.2 is released. 

the only thing we'll be fixing in the 1.x branch is critical bugs and security flaws.

the way to get your changes to cmsms is simple:

write your changes against current svn, get a diff out and upload it to patches in the forge or send it to the developer mailing list for reviewing.

If you have lots of changes its better to get them out individually (its much easier to check them individually)

Remember to follow the coding style, test on more than one system, and document your code.

hi tsw,

I was thinking that would be the way to go  - you make it sound easy though ;-)

thanks
