Finally after about 1 year of development, the final, stable Schoorbs 1.0 is here! Schoorbs is a web based room and resource booking system. Schoorbs 1.0 has the following features:
* book rooms & resources grouped by areas
* activity could be log via a simple logging interface
* code is automatically tested by several unit tests
* easy stylable through the usage of a template system
* produces valid XHTML 1.1 output
* packages for Debian and Ubuntu are available
* well documented on the Schoorbs website
Since Schoorbs is a fork of MRBS, we have to mention the changes since the fork:
* flavoured GUI with mircoformats
* Rewritten search inteface
* Added a REST interface, so that Schoorbs could be used as a webservice
* Refreshed GUI, compacter and more modern than MRBS
* runs without register_globals=on and without an emulation of this (security!)
* fixed several SQL injection possibilities
* added a simple logging interface
* removed complicated e-mail code
* rewritten Javascript code to work in modern browsers (using jQuery)
* Javascript and CSS are delivered compress -> speedup in enduser performance (thanks to Rainpress and Packr)
