Some various news about anyInventory, an open source inventory application I’ve been working on:

Version 1.5 was released today, with the addition of some of the label features promised in the documentation. Bug fixes are in there too, as always.

A new developer has joined anyInventory: Drew Hearle. Drew’s post on Slashdot was the inspiration for anyInventory, and now he’ll be contributing to it as well. Funny how life works, isn’t it?

Features planned for 1.6 include an improved search page, better remote file support, and timed alerts. So don’t touch that dial!

anyInventory, an open source inventory system that I’m working on is progressing nicely. It was ranked in the 99.21 percentile for activity in SourceForge the other day, and version 1.4 was released to rave reviews (well, my own rave reviews, but that still counts). Some issues with invalid zip files were resolved by offering a tar of the source files as well.

It is now the third result when you search SourceForge for “inventory,” right behind “Inventory” and “inventory”, which is up from being on the third page of results just a week ago. If you’d like to help develop or test anyinventory, or you are having problems installing, contact chris@efinke.com.

An upgrade to anyInventory has been released. The ability to limit your search to a category and its subcategories was added, and lots of comments were added to the code for those interested in developing. You can download anyInventory here.

The inventory system I wrote about in my last post has come to some fruition: anyInventory 1.0 has been released. It’s only been in development for a week, but it’s got some nice features. You can play around with a test version here: http://anyinventory.sf.net/aI/

I’ve been working on a Web-based inventory application called anyInventory for the last week or so that was inspired by this Slashdot thread. It has gotten to the point where I could release version 0.1 (or whatever). If you’d like to help test it out or would be willing to read through the help and documentation files and comment on them, e-mail me at chris@efinke.com. I’ll be releasing it officially in a few days.
