Great news coming for our beloved project for Ubuntu ISOs remastering, today, working with Wolf (a talented programmer from UCK dev team) we created the UCK’s PPA so everyone could have the latest updated releases with ease.

So go on and type:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:uck-team/uck-stable

and you’re done :-)

Actually we opened another PPA, that’s for brave people who want to test absolutely UNSTABLE snapshots of UCK, it’s names uck-unstable (same command as above but with “uck-unstable” instead of “uck-stable”). I’m not going to write the full add-apt-repository command for the unstable PPA to avoind some copy&paste troubles :-)

Have a great day everyone!

The first bugfix spin after the 3.6 rollout, let’s take a look at the changelog

- P4A_DB_Source::load() now returns an object also when setQuery() is used
- P4A_DB_Source::load()’s autosequence creation now checks that the field
exists before calling the setSequence()
- a bug with P4A_Redirect_To_Url and P4A_Redirect_To_File was solved
(bug #3039449)

Ubuntu Mini Remix 10.04.1

It’s time for a big P4A release before the summer vacation :)

The changelog is really long as usual but there are no explosive changes or new features, the main focus was porting from the old FCKEditor to the new CKEditor 3.3 (that now has come to a complete and stable feature set).

I also worked on updating all various softwares we embed (Zend Framework and jQuery plugins), fixing some bugs and reworking the AJAX stack.

After CreaLabs (the company I previously own) closure don’t worry, I’ll still continue to work and support P4A, I’ll keep using it for all my jobs and I also have some big plan for the future releases :)
