It is true that development was halted. I had an to leave the project
for a while due to work issues, I was seeking new employment as my current
employer SUCKS! But, things here at work straightened themselves out. I
have restarted work on the APP and will release the source code for the
newest version in the next week or two. Until I release the new version,
which is a complete redesign, I can give you a look at the old code and
resources used to build the initial database import. Below is a URL to my
personal git repo I use to release that source.


http://git.shadowbranch.com 

The source is the current source running on
the APP page. This is ment to plug into my current CMS. But, I have begun
rewriting it to utilize classes within PHP, which were not available at the
time of the initial writing of my CMS. The new version will be easier to
use and far more generic. Please view the source if you want. Any and all
ideas will be greatly appreciated. 

I'm unable to send mail from my work
due to outbound firewall rules to prevent virus propagation. So, I must
logon to my webmail, which I hate doing. But there is my point of view.
BTW, the database structure is ment to be agnostic and should work on any
compatible SQL server.

Hello guys,

I've read the meeting log and found
out that the APP development is halted because the responsible is currently
unreachable. Unfortunatelly i dont have any php skills but I could,
following the wiki guidelines, work on something over Django.

The history
behind this idea is the following:
- several days ago, some guys from the
AL Brazil started to discuss the viability to gather themselves and develop
a successor of the current AUR. When we brought the idea to the upstream
list, they kindly asked us to work on the current AUR bugs reported on the
tracker.
 Because it is written in PHP and no one of us (at least those who
had the time to get involved) is profficient on it, the team ended up
disbanding in the belief that it would be a fruitless effort.

I believe
that, as a team, we could achieve the goal. The unfortunate is that it
would be written in python. Using django as the framework is somewhat
preferable to some of them, but i believe it's discussable since the system
shouldnt be much complex.

As a side note, the entries could have also one
extra field to flag them about their urgency to be upgraded by the users
(on a security criteria for example). 

I would like to ask some opinions
on this matter, what you guys think of it, it's desirable something like
that and if i could begin assembling the team again.

Regards,
