2009 XOOPS Annual Report

2010-04-28T18:50:00-04:00

The preliminary 2009 Annual Report, incl. the financial results, is now available (click here).

It is "preliminary", because we want to certify the financials by an outside auditor, so everybody from the XOOPS community, especially our donors, can feel comfortable with the results.

Transparency has been always our top priority and an external audit will guarantee it. Once we get the audit done, we'll publish the report as Final.

Since last such Annual Report was published for 2007, we also included in this addition the 2008 events and milestones.

In 2011 we'll celebrate 10 Year Anniversary of XOOPS! Therefore let's use 2010 to make major improvements to our beloved CMS, so we can celebrate our Anniversary with a great joy and pride!

Long live XOOPS!

Sad news for XOOPS Community: Dutch court dismisses our claims against Herko Coomans

2010-04-24T19:50:00-04:00

Very sad and disappointing news for our community!

As you know, in 2009, we have filed a lawsuit against our former Project Manager Herko Coomans for return of funds (around â¬15,000) that belong to XOOPS community and are currently held by "Stichting XOOPS"

We've been just informed by our lawyers in Netherlands that unfortunately the Dutch Court dismissed our claims. The verdict is clearly disappointing to us and we strongly believe that the District Court of Zwolle-Lelystad erred in its conclusion, and we are investigating a possible appeal.

For example, it is beyond our comprehension that the court could state that purchasing by Herko the domain www.xoops.com on behalf of XOOPS (as confirmed by others) for $18.95 and selling it back to Stichting XOOPS for â¬4,000, while being approved by the same man who sells it (which is Herko Coomans himself), doesn't consitute a "personal enrichment", or as we would call it in the US: Self-dealing. At a current exchange rate that's $5,330 profit for Herko, which he approved for himself out of XOOPS money!!! If you're puzzled by such a verdict, so are we!

[Edit]Especially since the Dutch Supreme Court is very clear in its decisions about "Conflict of Interest" (see here)

This case will be definitely a warning to other Open Source projects to avoid the Dutch "Stichting" legal form, and about the Dutch court that obviously doesn't understand the Open Source project idea.

You can see the verdict in Dutch here

While we are investigating a possible appeal, the important thing for us as a community is to continue with our work and keep moving forward. Our XOOPS journey continues!

We appreciate all of your support in this legal matter and our most sincere "Thanks" goes to all the 225 people who signed the petition!

Below is the English translation done by Ghia. If there are any corrections needed, please let us know, and we'll improve it.

tinyXOOPS 0.1 RTT

2010-04-24T09:00:00-04:00

Name : tinyXOOPS
Version : 0.1
Status : RTT (Ready to test)

What is tinyXOOPS?
tinyXOOPS is a script that automatically downloads the latest XOOPS install/upgrade archive from sourgeforge to your server. And after the archive has been downloaded to your server it automatically unzips it and redirects you to the XOOPS install/upgrade wizard.

What do I need to run tinyXOOPS?
PHP 5.2+ (Lower version may work, but not tested)
- zlib must be installed
- allow_url_fopen must be "On"
- safemode must be off*

And the normal XOOPS requirements

*If you can change the max_execution_time to 0 (unlimited) yourself you don't have to disable safe mode. And if you can change it yourself I advise you to turn it on again after installation.

How do I use tinyXOOPS
1. Download the tinyXOOPS archive from [HERE].
2. Go to your webserver and make the directory where you want to install XOOPS writable. (Windows: Uncheck "read-only" in the directory properties. LINUX: CHMOD 777)
3. Upload the files in the downloaded archive to the directory you just made writable.
4. Open your browser and go to: http://yourdomain.com/yourdir/tinyXOOPS.php
5. Click on INSTALL if you want to perform a clean install and click UPGRADE if you want to perform a upgrade of your existing intallation.
- Downloading and unpacking may take some time, so don't worry if it takes long to load.
6. After the XOOPS files are downloaded and upacked you'll be redirected to the XOOPS install/upgrade wizard, complete this. (Check the XOOPS documentation for help with this)

- After the upgrade/install wizard is finished make sure the XOOPS installation dir isn't writeable anymore. (Windows: Check "read-only" in the directory properties. LINUX: CHMOD 755). And that you remove tinyXOOPS.php and pclzip.lib.php from your server.

What can I expect in future versions of tinyXOOPS
- A nicer layout
- Smaller files
- A (better) solution for the script execution time problem. (if i can find one...)
- And some other things I forgot to mention.

And please remember this is a test version!

Spiders 1.15

2010-04-21T07:40:00-04:00

Spiders 1.15

Spiders is a robot manager tool, that imports a list of all crawler and scanner robots on the web. It allows you to use XOOPS Permissiveness to control the data that robots list online your site. It will also log the robot in using a post loader and display when the robot is online on you 'Whos Online'.

The robot text file used is taken from an online resource of Robot data and stores it in your database. Remember to adjust your mainfile.php to include the post loader after the common file is loaded.

Robot Manager (Spiders) is a good way to control what your site displays in search engines.

Spider is only written for XOOPS 2.3 and later.

Catads 1.53.1 BETA released

2010-04-19T20:30:00-04:00

One of the annoying bugs in the original release of Catads 1.53 BETA was that the pagination of search results didn't work.

It makes a big difference to have this feature working, so I have released a bug-fix version (Catads 1.53.1) plus a patch-file download for those that just want to update the changed files.

It works fine in my tests using Firefox and IE - Xoops 2.3 - PHP 4 - MySQL 4. If you encounter a problem and are using PHP 5 or a later version of Xoops, please post on the main xoops.org forum where hopefully I can gain some additional help in finding a solution.
