Hello Everyone, For a while I've been maintaining a private build of AOLserver, with a mix of custom modules / new features / Win32 fixes / bug fixes. Several of these were done while I was working for Alex Hisen, who runs a number of production AOLserver sites on Windows. (Jeff Huber also contributed.) Since carrying these patches forward to new versions is onerous, Alex and I would like to see them incorporated into stock AOLserver and/or NaviServer before the codebases diverge too greatly. If you're interested, a list of the changes is at: http://www.jamierasmussen.com/download/AM-AOLserver-Changes.txt Some of these were reported on SourceForge but not commented on, so I don't know their worth. AOLserver is mostly a hobby for me now, so I haven't had time to follow up as much as I would like. Most recently I've been playing with the new build system, and have a script to help download and build the many dependencies for a "batteries-included" windows distribution. I haven't had a chance to evaluate NaviServer on Win32 yet, but it seems like you're doing some really neat stuff, so I'm looking forward to it. In the meantime, if you'd like any more information on what we have, please let me know. Thanks!
Hi Jamie! Nice to hear from you again! I am very interested to have a Win-expert on the board. I do not know about others but we, as you probably know, ship a product based on the NS for Unices (Sol/Linux,Mac) and Windows. At the moment most of the developers in the NS camp (well to be honest all except one) have mostly Unix experience. To have more people handling the Win part would be a great relief for us. I suggest the following, if you agree: we add you as developer, you check-in your patches into RFE, we go thru them together and apply them after examination. This RFE check-in is needed so we can better track what has been adopted in the server and what not. This is not a commit-barrier, just a small admin burden to get things better organized. The NS code is based on AS 4.0. This is about one year ago and since then we have been constantly improving it and adding features. What do you think? Cheers Zoran
