What To Expect In the Next JShop Server Update
For those of you who are interested in what to expect from the next JShop Server update, here is a list of new features and changes. This is not exhaustive and we will add to this list here on the forums before the release. Please note that we are not accepting any new feature requests for inclusion in this update.
We are now planning to release this new version in January, to allow time for some further optimization work and the addition of some other new features. Once this release is out we will be reverting to an update every 6 months.

Update...
There are a couple of extra additions we'd like to mention at this point:
We are still looking to release this new version at the end of January. However, we will release it as Beta status with a 'full' release coming at the end of the following month. We're keen to try this method of release in order to open up Beta testing to our entire customer base and thus provide a greater volume of feedback on problems.

A couple of new additions plus a small change in the release date of the Beta
Extra additions:
Regarding the Beta release date. We are moving this back by 2 weeks, until the 14th Feb 2005. If we can release the Beta before then, we will, however we still have some extra options and tidying up to do on the code, plus work still to do on the documentation and new default templates. In addition we are working on making the system compatible with mySQL 5. mySQL 5 validates SQL queries that utilize JOINS in a different way to previous versions and this has caused several problems in the system. As mySQL 5 will become more common through the 6 month life-span of this next update, we need to address this now.

Beta Testing Forum
Some of you may have noticed the new Beta Testing forum, and that we've moved this, and the PHP Coding forum, into a new sub-section called 'JShop Server Registered Users'.
First of all, full Beta is not about to start, (sorry) but we will be releasing the new tSys code today which, as it's a seperate module, should work happily with your existing sites (our demo store at http://www.jshopecommerce.com/jssdemo/ is already using this new tSys). There's a lot that's new in tSys which is why we thought it would be good to make this available sooner. We'll be adding a post detailing the new features along with the new code for download on the Beta Testing forum. We're keen to get feedback on this straight away as it's a pivotal part of JShop Server, and the Beta Testing forum will be the place to post regarding it. UPDATE: New tSys code has been posted to the Beta Testing forum

Unfortuantely it looks unlikely that we'll meet the 14th Feb release date for the full Beta due to a number of problems coming to light in new sections of code, a further re-working of the main interface to better fit in with the new drop down menus (we'll post more on that in the Beta test forums soon - but it will make searching in the system much more accessible) and more work in tidying up some of the code changes.
We apologise for this delay and hope that this is the last delay before we can make it available. So we are pencilling in a date of 28th February as the date for Beta release. We know that a number of people are waiting for the new update as it adds support for the up to date Protx protocol (that supports 3D Secure), so we are going to be releasing that on the Beta Test forum next Monday regardless, packaged so it's suitable for 1.3.0. One other thing to add, as if we haven't teased you all enough with this new release, is that we're seeing at least a 1/4 drop in page generation time on our test sites with the new code (this is excluding the improvements made to tSys execution time as well).
