Avanti MicroLCS version 1.0 beta 2 has been released. It is available for trial and downloading.
New in this release is a standalone GUI client application. This graphical client has the same clean, elegant look and feel of the Applet client, but it does not require a web browser to run. This greatly enhances the flexibility of Avanti MicroLCS by allowing it to run end-to-end, from server to client, in environments where a web server and browser are not available or desired. It only requires a computer supporting Java. Also featured in this release are numerous bug fixes and improvements to the API, along with a few minor changes to the user interface.
There will be at least one more beta release preceeding the final version 1.0. Development work for beta 3 will focus on very intensive debugging, testing, and refactoring of the existing system. Minimal new functionality will be introduced. The aim is to ensure that what exists is rock solid in every way, is scalable, and works extremely well.
Circulation capabilities may appear in the final version 1.0.--Seen on oss4lib
