ZFN 0.3.0a1 is the first alpha release of the 0.3 series. The 0.3 series is designed to support more multi-user and security capabilities, such as accounts and ACLs. Download
This first alpha is not feature-complete yet. It supports accounts, secure WebDAV connections, and JSON-RPC appending. Several minor bugs from previous releases have been fixed. ZFN now depends on progtools, which is now a separate package.
ZFN 0.1.4 is the third bug-fix release for the ZFN 0.1 series. This release addresses issues with the JSON-RPC client. Download
ZFN 0.1.4 addresses two issues with the JSON-RPC client: the stat command's failure to recognize the -o option and the possibility of an upload overflow.
As the holiday season approaches, so does the next release of ZFN. I'd like to talk about the future of ZFN and what's in store. Read on for more details.
It's been an interesting year for me. From proof-of-concept to release, it's been a great experience. First of all, I would like to thank everyone who has downloaded ZFN and used it. I know it's still far from finished, but I hope that it will reach it's potential soon. Most of the delay in implementing features comes from my desire to keep the software as bug-free as possible. Sometimes that takes a while. I am glad that even with this, at least fifty people have downloaded ZFN 0.2. Thank you!
I am furiously working on the ZFN 0.3 series at the moment, which I think is one of the most ambitious releases I have attempted. The focus is on adding user accounts and permissions to ZFN, a feature that I have always wanted and has been requested from my testers. I will probably release the first alpha of ZFN 0.3 within a few weeks.
If anyone wants to join ZFN, I think that the development process has somewhat stabilized as I have worked with Launchpad. Feel free to contact me at rlight2 at gmail dot com if you want to help.
