Message 10550 - Posted 4 Jul 2010 13:06:30 UTC

    Recently the project migrated to a new and more open development environment. It is now possible to follow the development and code changes up close by going to the development portal.
    The most recent development activity will also be made available on the front page of the project.

    This is one step in the direction of allowing the community to more easily contribute ideas, documentation and changes back into the BURP project.
    Later when the development platform has been properly phased in the current read-only status will be lifted and user creation will be made available for people interested in making contributions.

      Might I suggest that the regular news stay at the top of the page, since most people will probably be interested in server status, etc.?

        That makes me assume that you aren't seeing it at the top of the page right now (it was supposed to be where it used to be - only slightly thinner to allow for the SVN commits etc. to be displayed to the right of it).

        Which browser do you use?

          Yes, it shows up on top of the news in a single column. I am using Firefox 3.5.10 on OS X 10.5.8.

          On my PC running Chrome 5.0.375.99 under Vista Home Premium 64-bit, it shows up as it should--with the development news in a small column next to the main news.

            Updated to Firefox 3.6.6 and it displays correctly.
