securityimages 4.0.0 and opencomment

User Rating:  / 0
PoorBest 


I am back online...my notebook crashed last week and was promptly replaced by Hewlett Packard and the new hard disk died one day after being renewed...and as usual, a lot of backup (powerquest v2i protector), but I was not able to restore them, as it seems that my disk was silently dying since weeks , and "check backup afterward for consistency" is not checked as default. I work yesterday 3 hours on securityimages, and test it with a new secure PHP4 installation.

OpenComment is also currently tested, I am removing uneeded functionnality (not fully developed or tested), as soon as it work, I will deploy it to http://demo.waltercedric.com. I hope to be able to use it here on my homepage before end of next week...So all Beta tester are welcome (Colin :-))
