Code Spaces Upgrade to v2.2

Code Spaces is now running on version 2.2 which includes several small fixes, an upgrade to Rails v2.1 and some enhancements to the Forums and Work Items.

Rails v2.1
Code Spaces v2.0 included an upgrade to rails 2.0 which enabled us to deliver better performance and more caching. Rails v2.1 adds to this with better performance out of the box as well as a more complete caching mechanism which allows us to cache more content to make pages load quicker.

Forums
We have been aware of the limitations if the Code Spaces forums for some time, and starting with v2.2 we are addressing these issues.

Forums threads now show last replied by messages so you don’t need to go into each thread to look for replies.

Forum messages now feature rich text editing.

Forum messages can be edited or deleted by the message creator or an account admin, this can be done from the message itself rather than being a task in the admin section.

Work Items

The Work Item grid now shows a created on column.

Work Item changes are now audited, this data can be viewed from the Work Item History tab in the Work Item viewer.

Work Items can now be linked to to Documents in the document module.

Work Item email notifications now include the correct link back to Code Spaces so you can go into the Work Item from the email.

Upgrade Fee
As always the upgrade has already been applied and is FREE to all users.

Version 2.3
We are already working on version 2.3 and will continue to make incremental improvements to the platform so please feel free to Contact Us with enhancement ideas.
