Thank you to everyone that has helped test this module. This project has been a great example of the many eyeballs theory (aka. ‘Many eyes make all bugs shallow’). Unfortunately, the project has been delayed due to the beta testing volunteers finding many bugs, but fortunately, this means that everyone who gets this module when it is done will experience much less of them. The News project in Gemini (support.dotnetnuke.com) has been updated to reflect the latest changes. It outlines the now dwindling list of bugs that now remain in this module that must be fixed prior to release.

I would also like to welcome the several new team members that have joined since my last update:

  • Nikola Pandov
  • Eric Kulaas
  • Brett Juchem
  • Scott Schecter

Thank you to them for contributing! I again invite anyone interested to contact me about joining the project as well, either as a beta tester or as a contributor.
