Campsite 2.6.0 BETA is now released! This release brings a huge amount
of new stuff including comments, re-engineered article types, improved
security, improved feedback to user actions, and an automatic bug
reporting and feedback system (see below for the full list of changes).
You can download the new version here:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=66936

We've spent the past three weeks testing this and being users of the
system. This resulted in many bug fixes and tweaks to make things
easier, but now its your turn - please give it a try and tell us what
you think. Dont be afraid to send us feedback through the interface
itself (from the main menu: Help -> Feedback). There is also an
automatic bug reporting mechanism in place. If a special error page
shows up for you at anytime, please submit it to us via the form that
appears. Also, please let us know if you have tried it out and you
havent run into any problems! Thanks,

- The Campsite Team


2.6.0 (June 2006)
New Features
------------
- Frontend users can post comments on articles & comments can be
moderated by the staff.
- 'Article Types' screen re-engineered with the ability to rename
article types, to translate them, to hide or show them, and merge
them together. Article Type Fields can be renamed, translated,
hidden, and can change types.
- Improved security for the login screen. The password is encrypted
when it is sent to the server, and if too many unsuccessful login
attempts are made, a CAPTCHA (an image with text inside) is
displayed. This prevents automated scripting attacks trying to
guess passwords.
- Improved responses to user interaction. The system now displays
which action the user just performed and gives a detailed
explaination if a particular action cannot be performed.
- If an error occurs in the admin interface, an automated bug reporter
takes over and allows the user to submit the bug back to the
Campsite team automatically. This takes away any extra effort on
the part of the users to submit a bug and will allow quick
resolution of anything that comes up.
- Staff users can submit feedback directly to the Campsite team from
within the interface.
- Added Dutch translation
