Mamnuts 1.1 is out!

I told you that the aim of this project was to achieve as fast as I could to version 2.0: a bugless fully-featured talker base. So, it's with great pleasure that I announce Mamnuts 1.1, that you can download clicking on the sidebar.

This version corrects minor issues and removes the seamless reboot code.

Roadmap

Here's the Roadmap for Mamnuts as it is defined at the moment:

Following the directions that can be read at
http://mindboosternoori.blogspot.com/2005/11/building-talker.html, the idea os
MAMNUTS is to provide a secure an stable code base until AmNUTS 2.3.0 isn't
done. Here's the roadmap:

v1.0:
Release MAMNUTS as AmNUTS CVS is right now, but with the changes to show that
this is MAMNUTS and not AmNUTS.
This won't be a bug-free version, but will be the most bugless talker base
there is...

v1.1:
Fix #3: The easy fix is to take out the .sreboot command.

v1.2:
Fix #11: The easy fix is to take out the .kill command.

v1.3:
Fix #23: The easy fix is to take out .xcom and .gcom commands.

v1.4:
Fix #36: Revert "multi-line paste" changes. It will reduce usability but fix a security issue.

v2.0:
Fix #44: Changing "int" to "socklen_t" will probably fix the issue, but you'll
have to live with the fact that it won't work in old systems.
This will be (hopefully) a bug-free talker base.

If you have ideas for what should be included in this roadmap, please e-mail me
about it to marado@isp.novis.pt.

Mamnuts project created

After I've wrote about what's the best to do to build a talker, where I say that unfortunately there's no out-of-the-box bug-free talker base, I noticed that I had to do something so people doesn't have to wait for AmNUTS 2.3.0 to be release. So, I've created Mamnuts, which intends to be a quick-releasing projecto to give you a bug free based talker. Soon I'll post here the roadmap.
