1.6 Release

[Duncan Dickinson]

Hi All,

We'll start the release process for ReDBox 1.6 on Tuesday morning. It takes about a day to release the various modules so that they are publicly available.

It's been a longer road than we'd anticipated but a number of bugs and issues have been resolved over these past weeks. I'd like to thank the University of Newcastle team for their rigorous testing of the reporting functionality and to our developers for their intensive efforts. 

I'll update you once the 1.6 release is available for you to implement in your institutional builds.

I hope you all have a safe and relaxing long weekend.

Cheers,


Duncan

Hi All,

Li has pushed out the ReDBox 1.6 release and we're just waiting for it to be picked up by the central repository*. Once the system is live in the central repository you'll be able to update you local build to point to 1.6.

Release notes can be found at http://www.redboxresearchdata.com.au/releases/completed/1-6

* See http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cgav%7C1%7Cg%3A%22com.googlecode.the-fascinator%22%20AND%20a%3A%22the-fascinator%22 and http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cgav%7C1%7Cg%3A%22com.googlecode.redbox-mint%22%20AND%20a%3A%22redbox%22 - we also store them in our system at http://dev.redboxresearchdata.com.au/nexus

Cheers,

Duncan

Hi all,

ReDBox and Mint version 1.6 and The Fascinator version 1.1.3 have been picked up by the central Maven repository. This means that your dev teams should be right to switch your institutional builds over to the new versions. 

For those eager to move to the new version and receive goodies such as reporting, please make sure you check our sample config file against your own: https://github.com/redbox-mint/redbox-build-dev-local/blob/master/src/main/config/home/system-config.json (esp grab line 543 down). 

I will work to update doco and the demo website in the coming week. As always, please send any issues through to the list and we'll see where we can help.

Cheers,

Duncan
