Achievo 0.8.RC1



Hello,

first of all, we wish a happy 2002 to all of you.

Due to the demand in the past few weeks for a new stable version of Achievo, we have worked hard to stabilize the features that we introduced in the 0.7 development cycle, in order to come to a new stable Achievo 0.8 as fast as possible.

Some of the new features that were introduced in Achievo 0.7.3 have been found too immature and have been disabled in Achievo 0.8. Development of these features will be continued in Achievo 0.9.

Since there are quite some changes between 0.7.3 and this release, I don't want to mark it 0.8 right away. First, we'll have to do some more testing. Therefor, this release is marked 0.8.RC1 (for 'Release Candidate').

We encourage the stronghearted among you to try this new release. Upgrade instructions to upgrade a database from Achievo 0.6 to Achievo 0.8 are provided in the doc/UPGRADE file. If you don't find too many bugs in this version, we'll have a stable 0.8 version very soon.

I also would like to invite Achievo translators to take the english.lng files from this release as a basis to update the language files. (Languagefiles for languages other than english are not up to date in this 0.8.RC1 version)

Achievo 0.8.RC1 can be found at ftp://ftp.achievo.com/pub/achievo

We welcome your feedback.

Here is the entry from the CHANGES file, with the changes that have been done since 0.7.3:

+ Added supervisor to employees.
+ Added a few fields to customer administration (website, projects).

Greetings,
