Judging by the traffic on the phphelpdesk-devel list (i.e. "almost none"),
I'm guessing you don't want to wait. I've not heard of any plans to do a
new version in the very near future.
I've not heard of any updates to the software. In fact, I'll go further:
A) CHANGELOG has not been changed between 11/24/2001 and 7/9 (when I
contributed a security patch);
B) cvs log shows no changes between 11/24 and 7/9.
We (my company) have done a lot of work on phphelpdesk, including
functionality to
A) Be able to log events as people who are not the ticket owners without
reassigning the ticket;
B) Be able to modify or delete events;
C) Some new reporting features;
D) Greater compartmentalization between users (we wanted users who are only
authorized for one company/department, for example, to not see the total
number of tickets in the helpdesk).
E) Invoicing out of the helpdesk (which is what I've done all last night.
Sleep. Good.)
F) Automatically add existing manager-level people to new companies when
they (the companies) are created.
At this point, if I'm not lame, I'll start contributing some of these
things to the CVS repository, but I'll need to come up with way to do this
that don't affect people who like the current functionality.
