July 2006

The roadmap has been updated to give a more accurate and complete picture of what’s going to be in 1.2, but I thought I’d write up a brief summary of where things stand and where we go from here.

Firstly, I’ve rewritten a fair amount of the CSS, to make it more flexible and extensible. Content areas (such as entries, comments and so on) are now denoted by the content class, while the two columns are referred to by primary and secondary classes. This replaces a large and disparate set of classes and ids, making the code cleaner and easier to extend and modify. Additional stylesheets, for example, should now be much easier to write.

Secondly, Chris has been working on the Tarski Options page, cleaning it up and improving it substantially. We hope that the new version will be easier and more intuitive to use.

There are also the usual raft of tweaks and improvements, including the much-requested pagination and next/previous links, better trackback and language support, and a new and improved loop.php file which should make modifications based on the Tarski code much easier to implement.

1.2 beta test

Because there are such substantial alterations to the code, we want to run a small test before releasing it publicly. Sign up for the 1.2 beta on this forum thread.

Beta applications are now closed.
