The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
OK Nathan, I gotta ask ...
why are you still planning on reinventing the wheel?
My wife asked me that, and I fumbled through an answer. I was tempted to ask Richard Schoen the same question.
I guess I'm still in the thinking stage. That's better than dwelling on yet another 5250 client, written in JavaScript, that we were discussing before Christmas. Or yet another 5250 bridge. I'd better leave that to Niels, Aaron, Pete, Zend, the open-source community, IBM, etc. ;-)
To make matters worse, I don't have any marketing plans for a CRM solution. I'm mostly interested in offering better service to customers, and better integration with internal accounting records.
CRM is kind of likely addition to a portal, which I'm very deep into. Every application in a portal shares a common infrastructure (authentication, authorization, availability, access, navigation, utilities, etc.), and there's virtually no limit to the number or type of applications that one can deploy under a portal context. I think there's a practical limit to the number of applications one can deploy under Outlook, in contrast.
I'm now in the mode of cranking out new applications, as opposed to working on frameworks. So what's the next application?
Nathan.
