Dear Ernesto Spinaker,

I also have a question about the new release 2.0 of ABCD. But before I do so
let me first introduce myself. My name is Anja Douglas and I work as an
information specialist at the library of the University of the Netherlands
Antilles. At the moment we are as members of the Dutch Caribbean Library
Association a part of a consortium of 12 libraries form Curaçao and Aruba,
in the process of migrating from a commercial ILS to ABCD. This migration is
suppose to take place in the beginning of 2013. Later in September 2013 ten
more libraries from Aruba, Curaçao, Saba, St. Eustatius, Bonaire and St.
Maarten will very likely join us. After that, 14 more libraries from Surinam
amongst whom the Anton de Kom University that is already using ABCD as their
ILS, are going to participate also in this project.

However, our planning is based on the assumption that the new version 2.0 of
ABCD would be releases according to plan at the end of 2012 because until
now we have neither heard nor seen anything to let us think otherwise. Until
now. Does the upcoming release of ABCD 1.2 means that ABCD 2.0 will not be
released at the end of this year? Because for us to be able to make
reservations in the loan module and for our customers to be able to do their
reservations and renewals online both features of ABCD 2.0) is really very
important as to not to say it would be a showstopper. 

So could you please let us know if ABCD 2.0 is still planned to be released
in December 2012, or if there is any delay when we can expect ABCD 2.0?

Kind regards,

Anja Douglas
Library University of the Netherlands Antilles

Dear Constantin

We are working on an upcoming release of ABCD, which is v.1.2,
we are delayed, yes but not so much, I'd say much less than Microsoft's 
Windows :-)

ABCD v.1.2 will inlcude:
Complete package for Windows with Apache 2.4, PHP 5.3.15 and Yaz 
included runing localhost:9090
  (Tested in Windowx XP, Win 7/32 and 64 bit)
The same package for Linux, with a demo in Ubuntu (version to be determined)

The package includes
- Update of PHP scripts for v.5.3.15 or higher
- Update the ABCD Site OPAC to be compatible with version 5.3.1 of 
Bireme BVS
- Completed icons
- revised and upadated the messages is in, Pt, and hopefully FR
- a new utility for messages checking and translating
- MARC21 simplified version in four languages
- Bug correction in the editing module and new functions for fields and 
subfields
- Correction of bugs in the loan module
- completed functions (shortcuts) of "How to cite this record" and 
export to other applications
- Instructions for migrating current ABCD installations to the new version

other task underway and is expected to be on time
- Correction of bugs in the module aministraci?n
- Reserves in the loans module
- Renewals and reservations online
- Instructions for compiling yaz.dll in case there is conflicts with 
your Apache or IIS installation for compatibility issues

Moreover we are working in other areas that may not be ready in the near 
future, so it will be left for the next few months

Comment on Warning This is an unfinished demo vers... etc
------------------------
There is nothing dangerous in ABCD
What we want to notice is that if you install two versions of Apache on 
your server or PC may be you got in trouble because of conflicts with 
communication ports, and you can not have two simultaneous versions of PHP.
Moreover yaz.dll normally is not included in PHP, and it may be that the 
distribution yaz.dll of ABCD was compiled with other MSVC+ version than 
that of the Apache you have installed. Such situations should be solved 
by technical staff (vhosts, assigning special ports, etc..)

Regards
Ernesto Spinak
