Re: [Phpwiki-talk] phpwiki status

[Carsten K. <car...@ya...>]

Hi All,

I'm still catching up on the PhpWiki mailing list from the last few 
months so bear with me. I will look at the current submitted patches 
over the upcoming week.

Fortunately I have more time now (and some new recent inspiration (: ) 
to work on PhpWiki, and there are a few people who will be helping me 
to update the German localizations. I haven't been in contact with the 
other developers for a while so I can't say anything about their 
personal schedules at the moment.

I hope to clean up a few items to get ready for a 1.3.5 release, but I 
don't know yet whether I can do actual SourceForge file releases 
without Steve Wainstead (who usually handles it). Anyway, I'll commit 
whatever updates I can to CVS so at least they will be more readily 
available to everyone.

(The project manager Steve Wainstead must be away on vacation, he is 
probably somewhere diving underwater or whatnot.)

:)
Cheers,
Carsten
