The Dutch language pack for DotNetNuke has been updated for DNN 4.8.2. This and all other versions are available for download from the Dutch usergroup website: http://netherlands.dnn-usergroup.net (registration required). Special thanks goes to Marc Hujbregts, who has been working very hard to keep the language pack updated. The usergroup site also offers language packs for most core modules.

Anyhow, I cha ...

After so much inspiration from the OpenForce conferences, where Charles Nurse and Vicenç Masanas created advanced versions of the Announcements module, it really felt good creating a new version of the module. Although the number of new features are small, under the hood, a lot has changed.
