DotNetNuke® Project :: Firebird® Provider

DotNetNuke can currently be run on at least two database platforms - Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle. In the 2x days of DotNetNuke, it was also possible to run DotNetNuke using Microsoft Access which was more easier/familiar to the some of the community than SQL Server or Oracle.

The Firebird® Data Provider is a new sub project under the core which will allow DotNetNuke to run using a Firebird Database.  Firebird® is a relational database which runs on Linux, Windows and other flavors of the Unix Platform. It is ANSI SQL compliant and has a very small footprint in comparision to MS SQL Server or Oracle. It can also be run in an embedded mode requiring little or no interaction from the end user.
The goal of the Firebird Data Provider is to offer yet another alternative for DotNetNuke users who do not wish to use SQL Server or Oracle.

For those interested, you can get some more information on Firebird® from here.

This project was started by various volunteers with the desire of offering another viable alternative for DotNetNuke and thereby increase the overall usage of DotNetNuke. A large portion of the provider was contributed by Sanjay Mehrotra who also is the author of the Oracle Data Provider.

New Updates for the feedback Module (version 4.4.2)

Oct 7

Posted by: Sanjay Mehrotra
10/7/2007

After a long hiatus, I can now return to the changes for the feedback module as I had intended. Part of the delay in getting out the newer version has been my fault - switching jobs and trying to adjust to the new job culture. The other part has also been trying to adjust to having a new baby in the house which in itself is a huge project. :)
For this I do apologize to everyone in the community in general and hope to correct this in the upcoming weeks/months by being more proactive in my approach.
There are a couple of changes for 4.4.2 of the feedback module which have been submitted for approval to the core via the release tracker.  One of the major changes has been the ability to setup moderation roles so that people besides the Site Administrator can moderate posts submitted via the feedback form. This brings the project in line with for example the repository module and forums module which offers similar capabilities.
I have also added the stubs for creating the same capability for Lists creations (subjects and categories) and the goal here is that if I receive positive feedback regarding the moderation roles, I will extend this same capability to the Lists Creation section too.
Another major enhancement for 4.4.2 has been the ability to setup categories as email send to addresses. This means that you can setup multiple email addresses as a category and when the feedback is submitted, it will now be sent to multiple email destinations. This allows for one to create different email destinations based on the category (which I believe was a feature request when 4.4.1 came out).
There are other minor changes in this version including the ability to modify the items displayed in the view comments section (namely the ability to hide/show the name/email and subjects) of submitted feedback posts as well as some general cleanup to the subject id's, category ids which were being sent/viewable from certain areas instead of the values for these fields.

I am not sure how long the release process will take but I am hoping that in the coming days, I will be able to get the 4.4.2 version of the module released for general consumption. I already have the version 4.4.3 in the works which will include a new administration interface which will allow for the creation of new feedback form fields.

Thanks

Sanjay Mehrotra

I'm expecting this to be included with the 4.8 release.
