Mostly quiet development lately
I've taken a bit of a break from adding a lot of new features into the DM, but have been adding some nice small enhancements and "slipping" them into the current version 5.31.
The new goodies are available to those who do the "live update." This live update feature is making it really easy for me to put new things in the program and get them released as quickly and easily as possible.
And, according to the website stats, folks are indeed checking the the live updates regularly.
The biggest things I've been adding is support for contribution processing for several new organizations. Most of these have been really easy to add!
Plus, I've added a few enhancements to the error handling routine.
On the programming front, I've been busy at work on the new personalized bulk e-mailing routines. I'll probably have beta of this ready for testing in the next week or so.
This has real possibilities to be a nice feature. There are a lot of challenges to overcome, of course, but I think they are doable. The biggest challenge is to make it flexible enough to meet a lot of people's needs and wants while keeping it simple enough that it will actually be usable!
I'm working on the interface and workflow and logic, and Doug Thomson has some mailing routines he has been working on that will be a huge help.
I'll write more about that in a day or so.
