Hi everyone, The time has arrived for preparing for the next major release of phpPgAdmin. We lost a bit of momentum for a while there, but we're back into it now and it's time for another release. Features * Context-sensitive online help system * Use language preferencies from browser (Markus Bertheau, Nicola Soranzo) * Tablespace support for 8.0 * Support cancelling backend processes in 8.0 * Allow setting privileges on databases * Allow setting schema search path in SQL window * Allow filtering find results by object type * Show function arguments in find results * Support 8.0's named function arguments * "Sticky" navigation. phpPgAdmin will now remember while tab you are looking at (eg. 'Indexes') when you change which table you are viewing. * New fast navigation bar. A breadcrumb style navigation bar for fast jumping between areas. * Much improved grant/revoke feature * Allow creating and viewing composite types * pg_dumpall integration. Now you can download the entire cluster via phpPgAdmin. * Show line numbers when viewing functions * Syntax highlighting for PL/SQL, PL/PgSQL, PL/PHP, PL/Ruby, PL/Java, PL/J, PL/Python and PL/Perl functions, thanks to Jacob D. Cohen's BSD-licensed highlighting code on rafb.net * Add page navigation links at the bottom as well as the top of the page when browsing results. Translators ----------- We will no longer be changing the strings table for the <version> release, so now is the time to get your updated translations in. Release date will be Friday 12th. If you miss the release date, we'll do a point release with any additional translations. You should be able to the 'synch' script in the lang/ directory to merge just the new strings into your language file from the English file. It is a massive time saver. Also, before sending in your translation, make sure you use the 'langcheck' utility. eg. php langcheck french Which will report to you any missing strings or strings you need to remove. Developers ---------- It's time to test and find bugs. Please report any bugs or errors you find, and take an hour to really exercise some of the features. Snapshot Releases ----------------- Snapshot releases are available from the phpPgAdmin website. They are updated every night. This is the easy way of updating your translation or testing the release, without having to checkout the CVS version. URL: http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/ Regards, Chris |
