Wow..that was odd..>i replied the other day and now it is gone
<Which verison of SME Server have you installed it on?
stock and update script 6.0.1-1
<Have you tried it with any recent releases 6.x?>
will be trying with 6.5rc w/i next week but expect no problems as it is a standard mysql/php script
<Have you found it to be stable?
As stable as a linux/mysql/php/apache solution can be. Which is very stable.
<Why does churchinfo exist? From the webpage, it would appear to add features only, not remove any. Why are the features just added to the infocentral project?>
Other than what Mike, the project leader, has posted...i would have to assume because info central as ceased development of php and moving to a new framework, although it does not look like it has had much activity since mid last year.
"development has basicly ceased because the existing PHP code is not worth overhauling."
InfoCentral was formerly a PHP-based project. We are now in the process of switching to Java, employing the lightweight J2EE framework, Spring, and the persistence layer, Hibernate.
https://www.openserve.org/board/viewtopic.php?t=516<Any idea which of the 2 projects is most active (has the most developers/still having features added etc)? >
from the looks churchinfo has had a release about monthly since mid last year
<Do you ever update the program? If so, then how do you manage updates? do you follow the infocentral releases or the churchinfo releases? >
yes. Just replace the .php files in the server direcotry...nothing else. Infocentral has had no releases that I know of since mid last year so, i just keep track of churchinfo.
