16. Better resources for class contributors

Posted on: 2003-02-07

Please excuse me if you already received this message yesterday. It was mostly meant to contributing authors like you, but since many of you preferred to not receive site announcements like this one, I am mailing again this now just to the site contributors because I think it is important for you to be aware of these improvements meant to help authors to spread their work in the site. So here follows the original announcement again.

15. Sponsoring and Advertising in the PHP Classes site

Posted on: 2003-01-31

Hello,

As it was announced last month, the PHP Classes site is displaying paid banners in order to generate some income to help keep the site open by letting me continue work on developing and maintaining the site at full time.

The site now displays banners also in the alerts and newsletter messages like this to increase the income. However, the additional income that is generated is still not enough to justify keep working on the site at full time.

12. Your class ratings by site users

Posted on: 2002-07-24

Hello,

Since the number of classes of overlapping purposes is raising and the site users have been requesting so they can figure in advance if a class is worth downloading, some time soon I will be implementing a system that will let the users rate the classes that you provided in several aspects: utility, documentation, examples scripts and sample output. Other aspects may be considered later but these will be the most important that I will support.

11. Paid services survey fixed

Posted on: 2002-07-21

Hello,

Thank you to the hundreds of users that reported the problem in survey form. It as a minor bug in form field page allocation that was exposed due to last minute changes in page order resorting. Since it was only visible to people filling the forms for the first time (all of you), it escaped my tests.

The problem is fixed now. I would like to apologise for the inconvinience and having to mail you again.

9. Latest PHP news in the site newsletter and comp.lang.php newsgroup to be approved with your help

Posted on: 2002-06-07

Hello,

Finally I implemented something that I have been willing to have for a long time. I have just include in the PHP Classes site newsletter the head lines of the latest PHP news that were released in several other sites.

So, now everybody subscribed to the site newsletter can be kept up to date with the latest news in the PHP world without having to keep polling many sites to know if any interesting news were released.
