EvoWiki! We now have a lightweight WikiWare installation. If you think of any features you want added to it, drop a note by justin@xiondigital.net.

More Packages Released The amazing Tor Lillqvist has released prebuilt ORBit2 and libbonobo binary and development packages. You can download them from the Downloads page.

Binary Packages Released Tor Lillqvist has released binary packages for popt & libIDL. You can download them from the Downloads page.

ORBit2 Ported! Tor Lillqvist finished his port of ORBit2 to Windows. It now builds directly from CVS HEAD. Binaries will be available soon.
Some people are having problems with the build, but can be resolved at the Build Errors page.

Status Update: Tor Lillqvist and Michael Meeks have been playing with ORBit2, perfecting the patch to get it running on Microsoft Windows. Some portions have also been committed to ORBit2's CVS HEAD. Below is Tor Lillqvist's email to the Mailing List about it:

Subject: Good News

(In the voice of the professor Farnsworth in Futurama) Good news
everyone!

I finally found the trivial detail that was preventing the test
programs from working... (It tried after all to use UNIX domain
sockets, and printed no warning messages even though no such exist...)

Now test-any-server/client, echo-server/client and empty-server/client
talk to each others! Will try the heavy-duty test script in
test/everything next.

Will go through my still uncommitted changes (stuff in src and test),
clean up if necessary, and commit if they seem riskless, otherwise
mail to mmeeks for comments.
