Commit 550 has passed and new components have arrived

By TRB143 on 18 September 2009

Work on the 2.0 version is moving forward at great speed with new developers helping out.

In the last few weeks code has been added to run Impress presentations on Linux. Work is underway to get this to also work on Windows. Powerpoint and PowerPoint Viewer will come later.

In the latest merge a new Audit plugin has arrived to audit songs used during a service. This will record what was actually used during a service. More work is needed on this component but the foundations are complete.

The other month an extension to the alerting component was added allow alerts to be triggered over a network. This will be useful for creche's and car park attendants

Just to update, Impress support has since arrived on Windows and Powerpoint and Powerpoint Viewer are now supported too.

Still a lot of work to do on all of them before they are ready for the big wide world, but we've managed to open a presentation in all of them, advance to the next slide, and one way or another display it on the right monitor. Important first steps!
