The first release candidate for Geeklog 1.7.1 is now available for download.

Geeklog 1.7.1 is mostly a bugfix release over 1.7.0, but also introduces some new features, such as the ability to use static pages as templates for other static pages.

Please download this release candidate and give us your feedback (but keep in mind that it's not the final version yet, so you may want to wait for the final 1.7.1 for mission-critical sites). If possible, we would like to keep this release cycle short so that we can concentrate on keeping our schedule for the next major release, Geeklog 1.8.0, which we still plan to ship some time in November.

Geeklog 1.7.0 is now available for download.

This release adds support for PostgreSQL (in addition to MySQL and MS SQL), developed by Stan Palatnik during the Google Summer of Code 2009. It also adds a re-authentication option in case the CSRF token expires, thus preventing loss of data. For other improvements, please see the list of changes. Of course, it also addresses the latest security issue.

We would also like to thank all those students again who applied for the Google Summer of Code 2010 and submitted patches for Geeklog. Some of them already made it into 1.7.0, the rest is scheduled for inclusion into Geeklog 1.7.1. We will also be looking into adding more of our successful GSoC projects from 2009 into that release.

The first Release Candidate for Geeklog 1.7.0 is now available for download.

This version fixes the display of the last 10 comments in a user's profile and adds proper support for the CAPTCHA plugin to the Calendar and Links plugins, among other things. It also includes some updated localisations.

We are slightly behind our original schedule for 1.7.0, but expect to release the final 1.7.0 real soon now. So if you haven't tried it out yet, now would be a good time to do so and give us some feedback.
