Sun covers a featured story today about the growing OpenSolaris community. Genesi is mentioned and Bill and Raquel are quoted. From the story: "We predict that in the long run [the] OpenSolaris [project] will contribute more to the IT universe than [Microsoft] Windows or GNU/Linux," say pilot members Raquel Velasco and Bill Buck, general managers of Genesi, a leading provider of PowerPC-based computing products. "It will take time, but backed up by a consistent corporate strategy, Java [technology], the Sun Grid, and a pantheon of bloggers, Sun is destined 'to boldly go where no one has gone before.'"

Due to several requests, we've finally decided to post the membership numbers on the front page. The number is listed in the "Who's Online" block, and our current membership is 1524.

The lastposts module has been doctored (again) to work with the latest version of the webengine, and is now back online. Visit "LastPosts" by using the "Forum" link on the topbar. Also, the Submission and Hot-n-New buttons links have returned, and they should bypass eroneous banner blocking now as well.

The MySQL situation has been resolved; thus, the upgrade planned for this evening will be delayed in favor of double checking the site for any left over issues.

Due to the situation with the "MyAlbum" module, we are currently looking into other modules or online albums to use.

Due to an unforseen incident, the database for MorphZone has run into issues. Please be advised that forum posts made in the last 48 hours may not survive the database restore process.
