Bika Interlab release: Almost there

It's been a busy few days but we are getting there...

The release should come out this afternoon or tomorrow morning (I promise), so far we've already updated the following;

  • Bika LIMS Demo from 1.2.3 to 1.2.5 -> New demo is here
  • Updated the Interlab project page - here
  • Today we're going to populate the Interlab demo and write suitable demo notes - wip Interlab demo site (at the time of writing the records are still pointing to the old demo ahum, but this should be fixed within the next hour or so)
  • Once the demo is up & populated it's time to release...yes!
What we've also been busy with during this last week is to increase our marketing efforts around our Plone hosting (BikaCMS) services, by creating this page with our offered hosting services and it's prices. Seen as South Africa is getting to the point of understanding the value of a Content Management System (especially Open Source), I foresee this could take off well.

To spell it out one more time; we host both our Bika products (LIMS, Wine, Interlab) and plain Plone with some add-ons, such as Plone Helpcenter, Plone Softwarecenter, LinguaPlone, PloneGazette and Quills Blogging. All still on Plone 2.5, but depending on our LIMS upgrade strategy to Plone 3 (still to be discussed internally), that should be forthcoming as well.

Ok back to the Interlab demo now...
