First meetings of outdoor season 2010 | Afdrukken |
(Excuses, geen vertaling in het Nederlands beschikbaar)

The first "TrackMeeting" in Utrecht has taken place again. Once again with support of ATDOR, but this time in a somewhat different setting: they used for the first time a centralized database to share meeting data across different workstations. This functionality is already available in ATDOR, but has not been used much: it's a bit complicated to set-up initially (you have to set-up a MySQL database server) and there are still some outstanding issues if you work on similar data at the same time.

In the same geographical area, AV Atverni in Nieuwegein is also using ATDOR and upon their request we're going to look if we can add some functionality for competitions.

We have also found out that the runtime engine we use (so ATDOR is packed in one single executable .exe file for windows users) was the cause of some sparse crashes. We replaced it to another engine and the problems are solved for now.

So what else is going on? On the website/infrastructure part we decided to make use of Sourceforge's excellent options to list and order the outstanding issues, also known as bugs. If you report bugs to us (via e-mail), we will enter them in the list so they will not be forgotten. You can click here to go directly to this page.

 

 
 
ATDOR added to Softpedia | Afdrukken |
(Excuses, geen vertaling in het Nederlands beschikbaar)

According to an e-mail message I received, the ATDOR software has been added to softpedia.com software library.

Unlike most automatically generated e-mail, this message indicated that the team behind softpedia did some work to test ATDOR and to check that the software is spyware and adware free, as following text says:


"Atdor" has been tested in the Softpedia labs using several
industry-leading security solutions and found to be completely clean of
adware/spyware components. We are impressed with the quality of your
product and encourage you to keep these high standards in the future.

To assure our visitors that Atdor is clean, we have granted it with the
"100% FREE" Softpedia award. To let your users know about this
certification, you may display this award on your website, on software
boxes or inside your product.

More information about your product's certification and the award is

Feel free to link to us using the URLs above. If you choose to link to the
clean award page for your product, you may use the award graphic or a text
link: "100% FREE award granted by Softpedia".

 

I think this is a nice service and gives ATDOR a good independent "quality"  stamp!
