Hi All
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Well, I hope that for at least some of you RC3 brought with it some new
|
||
|
|
useful features. There seemed to be quite a few people wanting a Bible
|
||
|
|
Verse enhancement and that was one of the main changes in RC3 that was
|
||
|
|
released this past weekend.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Coming in RC4 will be the last of the additional features we decided
|
||
|
|
were "have to have's" for a full version 1. These include a migration of
|
||
|
|
the theme data out of the songs database and into the theme directory in
|
||
|
|
XML format. Also, the ability to both import and export themes. If we
|
||
|
|
can twist Raoul's arm a bit, maybe we can add a "theme's" section to the
|
||
|
|
website where you can submit your theme creations for other to download
|
||
|
|
and use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RC4 will also see the old "Alerts" feature from 0.994 coming back as
|
||
|
|
well as a "custom slide" which can be used for
|
||
|
|
Liturgy/Announcements/etc. We also want to add it a fixed font size
|
||
|
|
option which many of you want.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We would like to get **your input** on one issue though. At some stage
|
||
|
|
we need to do a database migration from SQLite version 2.8 that we are
|
||
|
|
currently using, to version 3. This will require us putting together
|
||
|
|
possibly an external tool which will need to be run to migrate the song
|
||
|
|
data from the current song database into the new v3 database. What we
|
||
|
|
would like to find out from you is whether we should put do this
|
||
|
|
migration now, before v1, or post v1. The reason we are asking you to
|
||
|
|
make the call for us, is because we plan to do a big launch for v1. This
|
||
|
|
will mean that if the DB migration happens after v1, there will be many
|
||
|
|
more of you doing migrations. It shouldn't be much of an issue to do the
|
||
|
|
migration, but what are your feelings? Raoul will put a poll up on the
|
||
|
|
website where you can give us your opinion.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks, in advance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Derek.
