#107 My meeting with the IT department had a bad outcome.

Hey Blenta

There lies a heavily load of prejudices on asian shoulders. I learned today that we actually had one case of knowledge theft in our company. Commited by a chinese guy. I personally like the concept of "open access" but my company doesn't :)

Our IT department gets a stomach ache, when I mention your p2p functionalites. Additionally they get a cramp when I talk about automated updates. But the biggest ache is tied to the fact that Yaoqiang is not known to many people, and therefore less trustworthy.

This is a dilemma and I have nothing that would increase the trust in Yaoqiang.

Bad start into 2017

I also talked to our software development department. They said it would be a good idea if you could somehow get your software to be part of debian or ubuntus software repository.

Yaoqiang BPMN Editor is already in the archlinux repository:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yaoqiang-bpmn-editor/

[Robert STeiner]

That's a small plus. But the status of the package is not up to date.

In the end, our company would like to have to more control over Yaoqiang. I hope you consider the feature requests in the near future. I would bet my ass, that there are more companies who think in a similar way as we do.

Maybe it is time to spread the word. The modeler seems pretty stable. I like it a lot. :)

Hey Blenta

Our IT department has probelms figuring out a way to block Yaoqiang from communicating with the outside world, without affecting other java tools. Do you know of a way ?

If not.... would you allow a paid customsation of Yaoqiang to turn of the p2p functions??

[史耀强(Blenta)]

I'm sorry, but there is no way to block individual java application. All the java application in the same mechine usually use the same java vm.

Sure, I will allow a paid custom version of Yaoqiang. Meanwhile, a dedicated update site can be setup in your company. So that your IT department can decide when and what update need to be pushed to the user.

It would be much much nicer if there was an option to enable/disable the p2p functions.

@Anonymous
Additionally sure..

@blenta
I was actually thinking you implement a custom wish into Yaoqiang. We do not need a speacial version just for us. Neither a dedicated update. We are only looking for a way to get Yaoqiang pass our IT security rules. If this can be solved through a donation..... good :)

In the end. I only need a nice modelling tool :)

[史耀强(Blenta)]

I'm sorry. I won't accept any conditional donation.

[Robert STeiner]

Sry. Wasn't meant like that. We had the slight hope that security measures would be implemented at some point anyways. We just want to speed that up :)

[Robert STeiner]

looking great :) thanks big time :)...
