BugNET

A new build of BugNET has been posted in the downloads section.  This release is primarily a bug fix release that solves a number of issues reported in the RC1 version.  There is also a number of improvements that were made based on user voted issues in the issue tracker. For full details of changes please see the change log.

For the next release, the focus will be to fix  remaining issues as well as implementing the most requested feature enhancements.

Note: To upgrade to version 0.8 RC2 you must already be running version 0.8 RC1.  For new installs you may install 0.8 RC2.

I would like to thank everyone for their continued support for the project.  With the recent release of the 0.8 version BugNET has improved vastly in the previous months to allow users to customize more of the application and use it how they want to.  It has been a great milestone to put the 0.7 version to rest and focus all our attention on the new 0.8 release.

Of course, with any new release there is usually a few bugs to fix and we are well on our way to fix these very shortly and keep the releases small and faster.  I thank everyone that has reported feedback in changes in the UI and bug fixes.  This is very important to help us shape the application to what users want.  Also, the new voting feature in the application will help us fix what users want so if you haven't yet register and vote for fixes and enhancements that would like to see in upcoming versions.

Please enjoy your holidays and we look forward to improving the application in the new year.

 A new build of BugNET has been posted in the downloads section.  As usual this release improves the stability and fixes a number of issues related to the 0.8 release.   The biggest news with this release is that it now supports upgrades from BugNET 0.7.  This is an important milestone for the project to allow our users to upgrade to the newest release and take advantange of the multitude of enhancements in BugNET 0.8.

I would like to thank everyone that helped out with the testing, fixes and suggestions to improve the 0.8 Beta.  We look forward to your further contributions in helping improve the 0.8 version in the coming months.

Also a reminder that SQL 2005 + and .NET 3.5 is now required for this release.

A new build of BugNET has been posted in the downloads section.  This release marks a big step forward in the stability and improved functionality of the 0.8 releases.  There were a lot of major and minor issues that were resolved in this release and general improvements made to the code.  This release also marks the implimentation of full localization in the application to the database (currently english only) but work will now begin on an easy to use translation utility for others to contribute their translations.

For those unfamiliar with the 0.8 releases some of the major highlights are:

• Localization
• Dynamic queries that can be saved per user / project
• All issue properties are now configurable per project
• Redesigned new issue page that displays custom fields
• Project calendar
• Notifcation plugin system
• HTML Editor plugin system
• Support for linking subversion revisions to issues
• Custom themes to change the look and feel (still in progress)
• API / Webservices for 3rd party integration. (still in progress)

 A new build of BugNET has been posted in the downloads section.  This is the final release of the 0.7 releases which wraps up many of the outstanding bugs and issues reported in the issue tracker. The biggest fix in this version is in the database which takes care of orphaned records in preperation for the 0.8 releases.   Now that the final version of 0.7 has been released, our focus will be exclusively on the 0.8 releases to ready upgrades from 0.7 to 0.8.
