I have put a bunch of my deprecated plugins and other odds and ends of code that I’m no longer working on up at /archive.  Some of it is marked with a license.  For any that’s not: just ask!

I also have similar odds and ends, some of which I still work on, up at github.

Just a note that my XRDS-Simple plugin has undergone some major refactoring as part of the DiSo project. It now lives at WordPress Extend.

Hot on the heels of the Actionstream 0.50 release comes the 0.50 release of DiSo Profile! It can be downloaded from the usual place.

Note: The permissions logic has been spun out into the new permissions plugin.  Make sure your install and activate that plugin first if you have any private data, or it will be displayed to the public.

Changes

• Changed author to DiSo Development Team to show contributions by Steve and Will
• Integrated with new WordPress admin theme (about time we released that!)
• Permissions logic spun out into permissions plugin
• Sidebar widget
• Fix for hCard import button (now link)
• Nicer URL display
• Nicer profile preview

I have just pushed wp-diso-actionstream version 0.50 out. You can download it from the usual place.

Changes

• Changed byline to “DiSo Development Team” to reflect all the contributions by Will Norris (more specific contributors in LICENSE file)
• actionstream_services filter as the way developers add custom service definitions
• Better YouTube support
• Support for many new services: userscripts.org, brightkite, getsatisfaction, backtype, github, and twitter favourites
• Sidebar widgets (actionstream and services list)
• Template tag for services list
• Nicer RSS feed URLs
• Some major refactoring
• Integration with new permissions plugin
• Intelligence in service display when wp-diso-profile is installed

Saving this phrasing before I forget it:

Some people are in university for accreditation, some for education.  The university tries to provide both, and as a result is suboptimal at both.  They are not complementary goals (and may even be contradictory in some cases). And, as Unix Philosophy, Google, and life teaches us: doing too much means doing nothing well.
