CMS Made Simple Forums

Hey all...

Suffice it to say, the dev team has been sort of scattered as of late.  I know personally, I'm working on a project at work that is pretty much locking up my brain so that by the time I get home, I have barely any energy to think about CMSMS.  It's been basically weekends for me.

Luckily, there are some individuals that have been really picking up the ball that I've been dropping...

As far as the forums go, jelle, cyberman and maksbud have really been going above and beyond handling support questions.  Thanks so much for that.  It's more helpful than you can imagine.

Since our QA team is kind of small, all the additional testing done by kermit, LeisureLarry and tamlyn has been wonderful.  There were some great bugs posted during the beta phase and it really helped to make the 0.12 series a pretty decent release.

And last but not least, calguy and tsw have been doing such a great job on irc questions.  Last week was kind of rough as far as irc support, and I really didn't have the time to handle it myself.  You guys really stuck though it.

So to all of you, a big thanks!  Obviously this project wouldn't be anywhere without members of the community getting involved and really helping to keep it afloat when the developers need some downtime.

Thanks again!

Glad to help whenever i can.

BTW, i've heard of IRC before but never used it, anyone care to enlighten me?

Well, basically it's a group chat network thing.  Though, for the novice, there is the Chat button up there in the top menu bar of the forum that will take your directly there...

well i knew that much, just thought you needed an interface like Trillian, Gaim.
i'll check it out,,    thanks

Gaim works well, mIRC, or Xchat depending on your favorite operating system.

I'm a big fan of xchat on Mac and Windows.  As for linux, xchat works, but irssi is better (and way geekier).

Just a quick update after the dev team meeting this afternoon.

Please welcome tsw and katon to the dev team.  They'll be adding a lot of the team and hopefully this will move along the process of getting multilingual content into the system before 1.0.

Also, maksbud, cyberman and jelle have had a "Support Guru" tag added to their names.  Just a little thank you for all of their help and hopefully gives them a little bit of credibility when giving out answers.  I feel they're very capable and would like others to feel that way as well.

Thats about it.  Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication.  The dev team and I appreciate it!

thanks to all the magnificent people who made CMSMS into what it is today... It became one brilliant system, and I hope it will be around for a long time to come!
