RMM doesn't have a dirty hack to make it work with the new way of handling sessions. Now you need PHP 4.1 or newer to use RMM, sorry.
-full real use of the new PHP way of handling sessions,etc.
-ui change in database view
-elimination of nearly every page that was part of a process
-standard form for most features
-added basic handling of granting and revoking privileges
-view the current user's privileges
-an action menu that lists most processes

This is probably the final 1.0x release. An import file ability has been added and a slight modification to the database view. The modified database view allowed the elimination of the drop database and drop table page.

Ah, another refinement of 1.0x. More unneeded code has been removed. The HTML has been simplified in some spots too. I tried rmm with Lynx...and...it worked very well. Needless to say, I was quite pleased.

Since php changed the way it handles post variables and sessions I made a 'lil hack that lets my old way of doing things work. Eventually I'll move the code to the new way, but that can wait.... read more

The things new to 1.01:
-fixed col span problems
-increased the amount of internal sql statements shown to the user
-refined a few functions
-reduced code size

Version 1.0 isn't that visibly different from .9x (there are no new features, no less features either), however it is 18k smaller (.9x was roughly 44k) then .9x and is similar in size to the original codebase. In getting the code down to the size it is, nearly every class had to be destroyed and turned into functions, page layout more standardized, and useless or unused pages removed.

This release is the same as .90 just without some unneeded files.

Up to .90...finally. We know; we skipped a bunch of numbers. It was decided that the features we have now are good amount for 1.0. Now comes fixing a few bugs before 1.0.

1.0 probably will take a long time before it comes out. The two of us coding either don't have time or no computer access. That's how life is though.

This release is in response to messing around with rmm on Sourceforge. Since Sourceforge has a lot of databases it took a long time for the page to load and navigate rmm. So a database filter has been added on the login page. It doesn't take Perl regular expressions, instead it will list any database that has the filter text in its name.

There were also a couple of reductions in the amount of HTML generated when listing databases and tables.

The latest version of rmm can be tried out from our Sourceforge site: http://rmm.sourceforge.net or directly here http://rmm.sourceforge.net/rmm/

If you have a project on Sourceforge with a mysql database you actually can view it. Rmm still has a long way to go so it might take a while after logging in due to the large numbers of databases on the Sourceforge mySql server.

This version is just a refinement of 0.65 with a few new abilities. The navigation takes less space up and is simplified. The ability to view running processes and add/remove fields from tables is now also possible. Version 0.75 probably won't be until another week at least or possibly will have different new features then previously mentioned.

The date for 0.75 has been pushed back a week and should be ready by the 13th of May.

It's the second release, version 0.65. Here is what has been added:
-free form sql query
-database, table, and field lists are all shown on the same screen

As before, there are no config files/scripts just uncompress and go.

Work on rmm continues, and hopefully by the sixth of May, release 0.75 will be out. Right now we expect that version to make use of sessions and classes, to add basic help, and a free form sql query ability.

Well here's the first release of rmm... 0.5. So I'll tell you some things about it:
-easy install
-no config scripts
-choose the server at the login page
-lets you view databases and the records in them
-you can do basic database management (new db, del db, new table, del table, new record, etc.)
-generally bug free (we think)
-it's small (30k and going to get smaller)
-simple (no fancy graphics or elaborate tables)
