Forum LAMS for Tech-Heads - General Forum: News for the LAMS projects (next releases, etc.) ?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

There was a problem with the messages going thru my inbox so I wasn't seeing messages coming from this forum. My apologies.

The LAMS project is indeed moving ahead. These days is mainly moving by the support of LAMS International's customers which are mainly universities, other educational institutions and companies.

We haven't been able to ship a new release in the form of an installer as it takes us quite a lot of time to test this.

However, I can provide you with installation and upgrading instructions if you tell me what version you have running.

Are you using the ubuntu package? If so, I think we can focus on getting that one upgraded and you should be able to continue working on that one.

Let me know what works best for you.

Also, I'll be looking into the Google translations for the i18n site.

Thanks!

Ernie

I got 2.4.0.201204131000 (according to the system admin page)

Yes I would be nice if at some point you could upgrade the Ubuntu distribution. I have 14.0LTS (and I think most people would have this version now)

I probably got it from here:

In the meantime I can add manual patches if needed. Last time I did that it wasn't too hard if I remember right :)

- cheers ! - Daniel

PS: Fixing the translator's interface would be really nice. It was so much easier with this "little help".
