Krang v2.007 is now available (the source release is up now and binary builds should be up soon). Notable changes in this release and in v2.006, which never received a proper announcement: * Improvements to the list-data management system, command-line tools and associated element classes. [Jesse Erlbaum] * Added support for Konqueror and fixed Krang to deny access to Mac IE, which was never supported. [Michael Peters] * Krang now automatically deletes any alerts tied to a desk when that desk is deleted, fixing a long-standing import/export bug. [Michael Peters] * Added --clean option to bin/krang_addon_installer. [Michael Peters] * Added new index to element table. This index will greatly speed complex publishing logic. Thanks to James Reidy for identifying the bottleneck. [Jesse Erlbaum] * Allow users whose page-size preference is 100, to be able to toggle between 100 and 20, instead of 100 and 100. [Michael Peters] * SiteServer configuration now does server-side includes by default. SSI is very common for sites managed by Krang. This will make development use of the SiteServer more useful and easier. [Jesse Erlbaum] * Added new --grep option to krang_upload_media. This option permits you to use a regex to filter what you want media to upload. [Jesse Erlbaum] * Binary distributions now include src/ allowing for rebuilding installed copies of Krang. [Sam] * Fixed krang_install --FromBackup issues when the backups contain addons. [Michael Peters] * Fixed bug where KDS import would trigger delete_hook calls when updating elements for stories and categories. [Sam] * Fixed bulk-edit to allow white-space on the blank line separating paragraphs. [Sam] * Modified krang_schedulectl to skip scheduler start-up if SchedulerMaxChildren parameter is set to 0 in krang.conf. This is useful in development when you do not want the scheduler to run. [Jesse Erlbaum] * Fixed several bin/ scripts to always load Krang::Conf via Krang::ClassLoader before using it. This fixes problems overriding Krang::Conf in an addon. [Sam] * Changed krang_upload_templates script to now handle "global" templates (those without categories). [Jesse Erlbaum] * Numerous other bug fixes. Detailed change-log here: http://krang.sf.net/docs/changelog.html Krang is an Open Source web-publisher / content-management system designed for large-scale magazine-style websites. It is a 100% Perl application using Apache/mod_perl and MySQL, as well as numerous CPAN modules. Krang provides a powerful and easy to use story and media editing environment for website editors, as well as a complete template development environment for web designers. On the back-end, Perl programmers can customize Krang to control the data entered in the story editor and add code to drive the templates to build output. Krang can be enhanced with add-ons containing new skins and other new features. Krang easily handles large data sets and can manage multiple websites in a single installation.
