Clearspace 1.7 Beta

Posted by Greg Unrein on Sep 21, 2007 9:11:39 AM

The Clearspace and Clearspace X 1.7 beta releases are now available. A few of the highlights in this release include a fantastic new UI for threaded discussions, a new 'photo' profile field type, and the ability to consume OpenSearch-compatible search services (Clearspace and Clearspace X are already OpenSearch providers). Check out Dolan's video for much more detail about OpenSearch.

 

Just a reminder: please don't use these beta releases in production, and please don't upgrade your production instances to the beta releases. Instead, install the beta as a new installation or use a copy of your production system to try out the beta upgrade. We don't officially support the betas, but would love to get your feedback on them in Jivespace.

What's the planned release data?

Hi there,  the release date for 1.7 is Thursday, October 4th.  We release final builds every 3 weeks, the Beta for the following release will be available the Wednesday after a final release.

 

E.g. On October 4th we'll release 1.7, then on October 10th we'll release the 1.8_beta

So... wasn't 1.7 supposed to be released yesterday? Does this mean that everything gets pushed back by a week? The photo field in Profiles sounds really good to me and I've been looking forward to it.

Yes, it was originally scheduled for release yesterday. I believe we've decided to take an extra 3 weeks for the 1.7 release to allow for an additional qa cycle to work on improvements and bug fixes that we really wanted to get into this release.
