[phoenix-dev] Phoenix New & Noteworthy - Fall 2007
Greetings,

We've done a lot of work on the website in the past few months, and I thought a New and Noteworthy document would be a great way to highlight some of the most prominent new features.

A jolly old pat-on-the-back to everyone who has helped make our website a better place.

EPIC got a facelift this summer to provide a better user experience. The improvements continued this fall with the addition of a dymanic AJAX menu which loads on demand to reduce page loads dramatically.

RSS feeds for news and mail archives

Each newsgroup and mailing list posting is published to an RSS feed.

Smarter download.php

Download begins immediately if no mirrors are found. If a specific file is not found, download.php searches the archive site, avoiding frustrating Not Found errors.

New project meta-data

The ProjectInfo meta-data has moved out of XML files and into the Portal. It's now much easier to maintain project meta-data.
