After spending the last two months working with volume measurements (4/3 PI AB2), MySQL silent installs, and almost everything to do with the various aspects of GDI+ in recent projects, I'll finally be caught up (relatively speaking) by the beginning of next week and ready to proceed on the Echoes project here at SourceForge. Having said this, I've slated the next version of the Echoes software for release by or on March 27th. There are many good features being developed (auto-updaters, database implementation, addition of images and content, multiple language compatibility, advanced printing, exception handling ;), HTML Help, NSIS on down the road, etc.), as well as some other ideas in mind, so we'll see what comes out of it in approximately one week. By the way, anyone willing or wishing a development project to assist with, this is the place. I would love to perform some collaborative development, as well as have a collective furthering of efforts towards watering this application's growth, especially so that it won't stagnate during times of absence. I look forward to developing this next release and to hearing from anyone interested in joining the Echoes of Eternity project. Chris
I've recently posted a discussion group at Yahoo! which may help speed up development and organization of the content related to this project. Check it out if you're interested: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/the_lesser_known/ All are welcome to participate. In the meantime, more updates are scheduled for next week after I finish a larger work project at hand, and I believe it will flow well and be very user friendly (as much as possible). Also, a new website for the project is underway, as well as the addition of a CVS repository (for those interested), and I anticipate the project taking off in the near future. It is definitely my privilege to work on this (i.e. something that will hopefully integrate two somewhat opposing disciplines in the hopes that something inspiring will result). I hope for like-minded support in the future. Otherwise, it may become a one-sided endeavor, and those never tend to be as objective as desired. Please don't hesitate if you have anything to contribute, even if it's only the wish to do so.
Before leaving on vacation for 10 days or so I thought I would release the most recent version of the Echoes software. A copy of the revision history is listed below. 12-22-2005 This version incorporates the following changes: - Removed System.Threading for splash screen (10 second delay) and instead included a button that allows the user to close the quote window when finished reading. - Added Class "Quote" and implemented the random quote selection code. - Added 3 new quotes to be loaded randomly when the program is started. - Upgraded the project to Visual Studio 2005. Submissions of articles and quotes are still welcome (see previous news item). More to come!
