Here’s a video that may be of interest for anyone using the JumpBox for Trac. This is a presentation I did on Tuesday night for the San Diego Java User Group. We talk about what contributes to effective project management, the qualities of a good proj mgmt tool and then use Trac in a real scenario to demonstrate how it works.

Updated JumpBoxes for MediaWiki and Wordpress now available

Published by Kimbro Staken on October 3, 2007 under Application Updates

As part of the 1.0.2 release we updated the JumpBoxes for MediaWiki and Wordpress to contain the latest releases of those applications.

The JumpBox for MediaWiki was updated to contain MediaWiki 1.11.0 and you can see what changed in this version of MediaWiki in their release notes. This was a fairly minor update to MediaWiki.

The JumpBox for Wordpress was updated to contain Wordpress 2.3 and you can see what changed in this version of Wordpress here. This was a fairly significant update to Wordpress.

The typical JumpBox migration mechanism can be used to move existing installations to these new JumpBoxes.
