Release Candidate Posted
At long last, the first release candidate for GetPaid's Red Ochre release is up! We hope you will help us review the exciting release and provide feedback.
At last we have reduced the issues in the tracker, given the code some polish, fixed typos and added some improvements. Red Ochre has gone a ways beyond what we originally set out to do...providing additional features like Plone 3.0 compatibility, optional anonymous checkout, 2 additional payment processors, lots of languages and i18n work, and some example implementations. Supporting all these extra features has taken extra effort to get the release polished, but also been a great way to involve a much broader community of developers and integrators.
We made it to the release candidate thanks to some dedicated effort from Maurits over this past week to squash some remaining bugs and clean up the product. Then, Lucie swooped in at the last minute to take care of the remainder of issues yesterday! Wow, great work you all!! Thanks for helping get this ready!
Update on status:
- All tests are passing!
- Release Candidate tarball uploaded: Download it now! (484kb)
- Issue tracker: main thing left to do is prepare the code base (tags etc) for the release
- Our Ohloh reports seem to be broken, so I can't get new updates from there (request for updating made today).
- There are a great many things to work on going forward, which have been organized in a page of proposals here.
- If you find any issues with the current Release Candidate, please report them in the issue tracker and share any ideas, news, etc on our mailing list.
Latest changes in product:
We're now up to revision 1125, which is what was used for this first release candidate. Changes since yesterday's update:- Put back on the last checkout page a check to see if the person is anonymous, and if the person is, we don't give a link to the order
- Added a check on the order view page to allow only manager and owner of the order to see the order, refs #157
And that's a wrap for today!
Please use the product and let us know how it goes! If you launch a site with GetPaid, please contact us so we can advertise it on our Sites that Use GetPaid page.
Thanks so much to all those who helped make this possible - all our developers and supporters. Special thanks to our sponsors, who have contributed so much support to helping this become a reality:
