Nella seguente news troverete anche il link diretto per poter scaricare e testare sui vostri server la MS3 ALPHA3...
Infine vorrei ricordare che questa è una versione beta e che per il momento si SCONSIGLIA VIVAMENTE di utilizzarla su siti produttivi...
Una versione stabile RC1 subito dopo il rilascio dell' ALPHA6, stando a quanto si dice sul forum ufficiale, dovrebbe essere pronta per fine anno o al massimo inizi del prossimo...
Saluti a tutti...
We are proud to announce the third alpha release in the osCommerce 3.0 development cycle and it is now available for general public testing. osCommerce 3.0 Alpha 3 "Spekulatius" is the first release to be made available to the public, where the first two alpha releases were made available to Community Sponsors only.
Alpha releases are made to showcase the new features being worked on and to generalize a version specific for testing to help fix and improve subsequent alpha releases for a final, stable, secure, and production ready 3.0 release.
Although we strive to keep alpha releases stable, the primary intentions of making alpha releases publicly available are for testing purposes only. The framework for 3.0 is still under development and will change in subsequent alpha releases. No upgrade paths will be provided between alpha releases and are therefore not recommended for production use.
Some of the new features that are made available in this release include:
New object-oriented framework (alpha 1)
New installation routine (alpha 1)
register_globals and magic_quotes_gpc compatibility (alpha 1)
New template structure implementation (alpha 1)
Search-engine optimizations (alpha 1)
Service modules (alpha 1)
Checkout procedure cleanup (alpha 2)
New language definitions implementation (alpha 2)
Updated payment modules with post-transaction actions (alpha 3)
Catalog front-end, administration tool, and installation routine combined (alpha 3)
XHTML/CSS based default template layout for the catalog side (alpha 3)
Multiple product images implementation (alpha 3)
New action modules (alpha 3)
... and more! (application_top.php has never been so clean!)
