voice your opinion now!

On the ThinkPHP blog today, Ute has posted about a developer blog that has been started up for PHProjekt:

Seven and half years and a lot of downloads later the development team decided that a complete makeover is necessary not only to include more Web 2.0 features but also to add new functions to one of the most popular Open Source Groupware based on PHP. [...] There are still some months left till PHProjekt 6 will be released but for the time being you can follow the progress in a developers' blog started recently.

The blog already has information on the upcoming version (PHProjekt 6) and a first part of a "what's new" series on additions to the project. PHProject is an open source groupware application providing tools like shared calendars, project management and file management.

Mini-Review Zend Guard vs IonCube PHP Encoder
0 comments :: posted Thursday March 20, 2008 @ 12:53:11
voice your opinion now!

Davey Shafik has done a mini-review comparing the Zend Guard software with a similar offering from IonCube, IonCube Encoder to help protect your PHP applications.

For the last several years, we have been successfully using the IonCube PHP encoder. It works well, providing us with as secure a solution as we could wish for, for our code. [...] Due to the amount of head pounding involved in finding this issue [where IonCube was removing a valid logic branch], I started to consider using Zend Guard instead, figuring that Zend has far more resources and more experience in this arena, we might see less issues.

He details their upgrade process including comments on the included GUI and how it "just works" (once it's set up)

Sebastian Bergmann's Blog:
On PHPUnit and Software Metrics
0 comments :: posted Friday February 08, 2008 @ 09:31:00
voice your opinion now!

In one of his latest entries, Sebastian Bergmann answers a question from another blogger about the future of software metrics and project mess detection as a part of the PHPUnit project.

When I started to work on these projects, there was no other place for me then to develop them as part of PHPUnit. [...] But the more I thought about it, I realized that these features do not belong into PHPUnit but into a suite of tools that PHPUnit is a well-integrated part of.

He did, however, include it as a part of the PHPUnit 3.2 release at that time. Now, however, there are the tools and platforms to make those tests useful outside of the PHPUnit environment and is allowing him to move it out from the testing application and on to closer integration with other software.
