Version 1.8.0 Released

The big leap forward here is that SSL connections are now supported. SSL is transparent to the user, but a little more is involved in making the launchers.

More later... there will be an OA sysadmin guide that describes how to set up SSL, how to create launchers, etc.

Version 1.7.1 Released

Version 1.7.1 was released today. Improvements include:

  • Password based encryption now possible on config files. This allows launchers to be encrypted, which allows them to be (more) securely distributed to clients via email.
  • Bugs fixed in duplicate finding and merging: proper handling of blank fields of nulls, proper merging of approximate DOB, the new record now always displays on the left, etc.
  • Queries can now specify the database in which to search. By default, they search in the default database (dbid=0)

New Programmer Docs

I've added some (very rough) new documentation on programming and customizing OffstageArts. It's a start.
