The next steps have been made on the road to 2.0, so webmoviedb will be easier to use for more people out there. This is a development version and database layout is still not final, but for those, who like experimenting it's worth a look.

Release 1.9.1 is somewhat the first beta on our 2.0 series (which will take a lot more time) bringing better searching, first mass update functions.

Comments/Rating and updateing of installed databases will follow in next release.

This release focused mainly on bugfixing.
No new features were implemented but almost all bugs were fixed. (If you still finde some, let us know)
Expect new features and documentation in 2.0 which will be our next release.

While we're still keeping our focus on the last bugs which are marked for version 1.6, slowly our minds start to think about the next incarnation of webmoviedb. It's nice to see some other folks starting to get interested, so we're trying to learn our lessons from what worked out great and what did not.
The 2.0 release has allready some bugs marked and new tasks have been opened. We expect to have the theming ready by then, have the interface made better usable and kept the bugs as low as possible.
Maybe also some documentation be available.... read more

Enough of the cool titles for releases, it was time
to release what has been in development for another couple of weeks. What's in there is in the release notes for version 1.6.

So give it a try, and please report errors and feature requests on the project page.

Enjoy

A lot of bugs have been fixed again (e.g. register_globals is not needed anymore), and a new installer is in the works to have an easy first time setup.

THe first download package has been submited, still the SQL creation scripts for the needed tables are missing, but they should follow soon...

Project created and first sf.net tools set up.

CVS will be uploaded shortly (when I find a way to import our current cvs)

Everyone whos interested should fire an email of, so we might give some first impressions
