Once again, we’re late on our planned schedule since Typo 5.0.4 should have been released 5 days ago. Piers and I have been pretty busy lately, and I’m now waiting for some external material in order to release a 5.0.4b1.
Since I was moving Typosphere to a new server, a nice 2.33ghz dual core with 4gb RAM running an Apache and mod_rails on FreeBSD, I also wanted to stop using trac as a bug tracker. In spite of being used by many open source projects around, trac is just a bloatware. I was really fed up with cleaning the session table twice a month just to avoid having it consuming 99% of my server resources. There was another reason why I wanted to ditch Trac: it’s Python, and Redmine is Ruby. As far as I know, every URL but the RSS has been redirected properly.
Typogarden is going to change too and become a theme repository based on a Typo install. I will certainly call for gardeners someday to maintain the thing once I’ve installed the new Typogarden in its new home.
More to come soon, stay tuned.
