Well they do say Patience Is A Virtue and Everything Comes to He Who Waits – What’s the smilie for a sheepish grin?

Seriously though we are now running the full version of the new app against the production database, making some final checks and moving all the attachments over to our server at Amazon S3.

All of this means deploy to production will be any day, from now. We are being totally paranoid about data integrity and business continuity, and really thankful for both the diligence and experience of Marc (that’s him at the top of the page). He really is a star but I refuse to introduce him to anybody – he’s far too busy as it is.

There are some things we haven’t done yet and maybe won’t for a while.

  • Import/Export is a major pain – we’ll do a special for anybody wanting a complete dump of their data
  • Upload Address Book is an even bigger problem – we’ll look at several products in the market and implement the best asap
  • There are some pages which don’t present quite as cleanly as we’d like – we’ll get to them once we’re using the app in anger
  • All of the FAQ and other user support stuff needs to be rewritten, including a bunch of video tutorials
  • We had to make a choice between adding value to existing users or waiting till we had everything ready for new registrations, and the first option won.

    In the meantime, and as always, our support team is standing by to provide the very best in customer service.
