Hey Everyone!!!
We, here at the "BASE Development Center" have taken a vacation for
about a month, and are now ready to move forward, onward, and upward.
1st -> I would like to personally thank everyone for being part of
this project, from developers to end-users. We've been mentioned in
several books and magazines, many interviews, even more articles, and a
countless number of websites. (Just Google "BASE" or it's full name,
you'll see) With over 16 THOUSAND downloads (and that's not counting
people that have downloaded it from third party websites), we must be
doing something right!! We have an official debian port, and an
official BSD port now as well!!
Even Marty Roesch has told everyone using ACID should switch to BASE!!
Thanks Marty!
2nd -> We are going to release 1.1.3 soon. Would like to get this
release out the door by June 15th, this release is mainly going to be
bug fixes, no really big new functionality, we're saving that... See
#4
I think we should also extend special thanks to Alejandro for getting
PEAR Graphing up and doing away with "jpgraph". Thanks Alejandro!
3rd -> We are going to keep that optempo (Operational Tempo) going with
1.2. We want to finalize the role-basing system, to be able to assign
groups, users, and sensors to certain people and vice-versa. Securing
the interface basically. That's going to take a good two months to get
done and finalized.
4th -> Kevin and I would like to call a meeting. Of all members of the
developers team as well as all members of these mailing lists. I would
like to schedule it for ONE WEEK FROM TODAY, JUNE 1st 2005. The
meeting will take place on IRC, freenode.net in the #secureideas room
at approximately 1900 EST (7 PM). Please be there, we'd like to iron
out what our goals are for the project and see if we can't get some
more people interested in working on development.
Also like to have a big fat brain storm with all the experts of the
community. I'd love to have people like Marty and Matt Wachinski
there, if we could coax them out of their traveling schedules!!
If you don't know how to sign onto IRC, which, some people don't, it's
okay.. take a look into XChat (many platforms, including mac os x...
this is what I use) or for you Windows people, mIRC. I don't care if
you write your own IRC client, please be there.
5th -> If you haven't gleaned from the above, #secureideas on
irc.freenode.net is the official BASE channel. We're using it mainly
for discussion of development right now, but please feel free to sit
and idle. :) We're going to be doing alot of public things in the
channel.
6th -> If anyone is on this list, and is interested in becoming a
member of the development team for BASE, please contact us @
base@secureideas.net , we'd like to get a few more developers in on
this project to make sure we can be as productive as can be.
7th -> We ask that if you are going to have BASE in a book, or article,
or what-have-you. Please let us know, again at base@secureideas.net,
we'd love to read the articles and books.
Thank you all for your support, if you have any questions, please email
us at base@secureideas.net , I will be away from email until next week.
