Things with Infonomix are chugging right along - I’ve been doing a bunch of code maintenance lately, a lot having to do with the code split, and some having to do with better management of node-sets in the XSL files.
So what else is new? Well I’m getting very excited about the possibility of running Infonomix and related applications on more than one application engine. It would be very cool to be able to run Infonomix on PHP, perl, Python, tcl, and even ruby.
Since Infonomix is mostly written in XSL, XML, and SQL, porting shouldn’t be too difficult!
One major factor behind this effort is that the subversion bindings for PHP aren’t available in the debian repositories. I have a feeling its due to a licensing conflict between PHP and subversion, like the issue with PHP and Readline.
Infonomix 0.05 is now ready for download. This release includes some major changes in the codebase, so there are likely to be some bugs. On the plus side, it represents some great work and improved focus on the purpose of the project.
I’m hoping that we’ll soon be able to use Infonomix to manage its own development!
Infonomix is going through some changes… they say change is good, right? Infonomix has start to become a Trac-like project management package, and so the time tracking / time clock system has been split off into its own project: Nextoclock.
This change will allow the two separate projects focus on specifics, rather than trying to balance out the functionality between the two.
Using the pecl svn PHP extension, Infonomix is now able to browse subversion repositories. 
Support is limited at the moment, but I’m hoping to switch from Trac over to Infonomix at some point in the future. When that happens, support will improve drastically!
Yay! Infonomix is now listed at HotScripts!

This is good, hopefully Infonomix will get some more users and feedback from the community.
Thanks to jQuery and the jQuery clickmenu plugin, Infonomix now features drop down menus! You can check them out in the freshly updated demo:

Trac 0.11 Release Candidate 1 has been tagged! This is very cool, I like and have been using the new version much better thanks to its better template support. Python is still a bit of a mystery to me, but Trac does a great job for managing software projects.
I’ve updated the demo to use the new dual-database connections, using the localhost as the read source. This will speed up performance as well as reduce server load.
Feedback is welcome as always…
I’ve just updated the demo to a more recent Subversion snapshot and it looks like its running OK. Lots of small bugs have been fixed lately and its shaping up for a new incremental release soon. Stay tuned!
I just updated the SQLite model for Infonomix and conducted some minimal tests. Its operational, which is great!
