ANNOUNCE: Krang 1.101

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2005/01/20]

We're very pleased to announce that Krang v1.101 is now available.

Notable changes in this release:

   * Fixes to the session caching improvements that were added in the
     1.100 release - bulk-edit now works again, as does search-form
     clearing.

   * bin/krang_publish now has a --not_on_desk option, to limit
     publishing of content to those items not sitting on a desk within
     the CMS.

   * Thumbnailing of extreme aspect-ratio images (e.g. 200x5 pixels)
     has been fixed.

   * Improved support for MySQL 4.1.x - Krang should now work fine on
     MySQL 4.1.8 (the first "stable" release) or higher.

   * Services that run on unprivileged ports no longer use sudo on
     startup.

Krang is an Open Source web-publisher / content-management system
designed for large-scale magazine-style websites.  It is a 100% Perl
application using Apache/mod_perl and MySQL, as well as numerous CPAN
modules.

Krang provides a powerful and easy to use story and media editing
environment for magazine editors, as well as a complete template
development environment for web designers. On the back-end, Perl
programmers can customize Krang to control the data entered in the
story editor and add code to drive the templates to build
output. Krang can be enhanced with add-ons containing new skins and
other new features.  Krang easily handles large data sets and can
manage multiple websites in a single installation.
