[ development/knotes , kind=progress report ]
We've just about bashed the last little dependency in our production version of knotes, and are concentrating over the next three days on merging all the recent improvements into the CVS version at sourceforge.

Within a couple hours, we'll have our production version of knotes in shape and suitable for deployment on other peoples' zope/plone installations. Huzzah!, phew!, and none-too-soon! :o)

We now have to carefully merge our production version with the CVS at the knotes sourceforge area, and make a new tarball to put in our own downloads areas, based on that CVS version. We expect it to take the rest of this week, given other demands on our time - though we can hope for speedier progress.

Once we have a stable and highly-usable release on sourecforge, we'll concentrate on improving documentation, and on providing issue-tracking etc - we'll make an open blog-forum for developers to post queries and share ideas as well

Of course we'll also have to do some writing at our own product pages :o) I'd also very much like to get some time to do justice to the knotes.net site, which is an utter mess now. I want to use knotes.net as a text-case for a plone sitelet theme / customisation-policy, comprised transparently and attractively of just a blog or two and a few simple downloads/content areas (inspired by particletree.com).

I'll post a note here when we've upgraded the CVS version of knotes.

1 knotes CVS is now up-to-date

Steve has completed updating knotes CVS at sourceforge and tested using knotes from a fresh and virgin install

The version of knotes in CVS at sourceforge has been up-to-date for the past day. Steve will be trying from now on to keep the CVS version in synch with bug-fixes and key feature-completions in our production version.

Knotes no longer has dependencies on other products except for ZAAttachment Attributes. We're working on eliminating that dependency as well.

Thanks to those of you who have been waiting for this :o)
