[Hypercontent-developer] HyperContent 2.0b3 released

[Alex V. <av...@co...>]

Hello all,
	I have just added the beta 3 release to the HyperContent home page.  
This release contains fixes for a variety of bugs raised on and off 
this list, and introduces the scheduling component, which offers you 
the ability to define calendar-based, fixed-interval or specific 
date-time schedules for workflow events.  This includes support for 
user-defined schedules; the new schedule script allows you to specify 
the appearance and expiration time for a file, or even for a version of 
a file.  The approvals script now sends out daily reminders for files 
requiring approval, and the publish script in the sample project is set 
up to publish on an hourly basis.  These are just examples to show you 
how it's done; it's expected that you would want to tweak the schedules 
and scripts for your own requirements in real use.
	This is the version we will be using going into our pilot production 
site migration over the next couple of weeks here at Columbia.  I 
encourage everyone who is actively checking out HC2 to upgrade to this 
beta, since some of the bug fixes are potentially critical.  I expect 
to release the final version of 2.0 in the next 2-6 weeks, once we have 
successfully migrated one or two projects in production and worked 
through any critical issues identified by our real users, and by all of 
you.

Cheers,
	Alex
