After yesterday's presentation of Andreas Finnman's thesis
"A Case Study for Developing a C Based Module in Pike", we
can now make the final version of the document available

February 3, 2003 - The applications section has a wiki.:
It is now possible for anyone to enter her application into
our application pages. This will hopefully grow into a nice resource for finding Pike applications.

Our first Pike 7.4 release for Windows has most features you would normally use in Pike, including GTK.

November 8, 2002 - What would Martin Nilsson say...:
...if you were here right now? I'm sure he'd say a thing or
two, yes, that's what Martin Nilsson would do.
October 28, 2002 - Site search introduced:
The site is now indexed by Roxen Search, which means you
should be able to find mostly anything available on the
site without knowing where to look for it. As for the
search widget itself, we would gladly appreciate your
help getting it to look good too. :-]
August 25, 2002 - Conference group picture added:
Who was at the conference? What do they look like?
August 22, 2002 - Pike site presentation online:
The presentation about the Pike Site running at the Pike conference is already online! Yay!
August 1, 2002 - ftp://pike.ida.liu.se/ set up:
The official Pike FTP site just moved from
ftp.roxen.com to
pike.ida.liu.se,
complete with all old versions and ancestors of Pike.
We have also made the occasional update of the contents,
for good measure.
July 26, 2002 - Pike Site project page added:
as an aid for all our site editors on what conventions are
used, how things work here in general and similar topics.
This also proved an ideal place to show our goals with the
site and rally users interested in joining us, as a bonus. :)
July 25, 2002 - Conference Registration Form added:
If you intend to visit the 2002
Pike Conference, you may now register on the site. For
those of you who prefer registering by mail, please contact
directly instead.
July 24, 2002 - ISY donates build machines:
The Pike Xenofarm project
just received another hardware donation from the department
of electrical engineering at Linköping University, Sweden.
July 20, 2002 - Pike RPM project initiated:
We want Pike in all major Linux distributions.
Debian GNU/Linux is
already
there. Hedda
is coordinating the efforts of making good Pike RPMs for the
masses.
July 19, 2002 - Site News section added:
For those of you who are interested in what happens here on
the site, we will post notices on all noteworthy additions or
changes here from now on.
July 14, 2002 - Project Assimilation initiated:
In the interest of spreading Pike, giving credit to those who
help that cause by providing Pike support for various tools,
applications or environments and to point current Pike users
to these, we booted a project to coordinate the work and link
the world. With time, the world will probably link back.
July 11, 2002 - Site cache work-through:
Martin Stjernholm has helped us out with a site template cache
review, finding out cache dependencies and the like. Hopefully
your cvs browsing experience will be a lot smoother (diff
popups already are) in the future. You might encounter the
occasional overcache bug for some time still, but we will be
working on fixing any problems we find or are made aware of.
July 7, 2002 - New hosted application: Code Librarian:
The CVS Browser
running on this server just got a homepage here (and, while
at it, a project page on
Freshmeat
to alert the world :-). Updates and news on this application
will end up here in the future.
July 6, 2002 - Pike Projects section added:
The site now has a section on the various Pike projects that
we, or for that matter, other members of the Pike community,
are running; Xenofarm, for
instance.
July 5, 2002 - Pike Applications section added:
The site just got a new section on featured Pike applications.
For now, only our own hacks will appear here, until we have
devised some authentication infrastructure to let you add
your own Pike applications.
July 4, 2002 - Site Future page added:
Find out about some of our wild ideas for the future of the
Pike site.
July 3, 2002 - Nicer 404 page:
Okay, we admit it; this isn't much as news go, but for those
of you who type URLs wrong, the page you end up on isn't as
strikingly ugly now as it used to be.
June 28, 2002 - New About section added:
The stuff formerly in the about section was moved down a level
to About > Pike and a
somewhat more catchy run-down on what Pike is was put there
instead. This also left us some room for other things planned
for this part of the site in the future.
June 27, 2002 - CVS Graph now speedy:
The much needed speed upgrade of the root page CVS commit
graph finally happened. Loading the root page should be a
swift, much nicer operation from now on.
June 26, 2002 - Pike News Archive added:
The Pike news, as shown on the front page, now has an archive
for browsing both old and new news announcements.
June 23, 2002 - Pike tutorial re-exposed:
Though still not perfectly integrated with the site
navigation (yes, you will probably notice that the chapter
listings are far too wide for the browser window), the Pike
tutorial content is finally available on the site. Update
your old docs.roxen.com bookmarks; this is where it will be
maintained from now on.
June 20, 2002 - pike.ida.liu.se site official:
The new site we have been working on for a few months is
finally officially opened for common visitors. Be sure to
update your old pike.roxen.com bookmarks.
June 19, 2002 - Pike Conference announced:
The Autumn 2002 Pike User Conference is announced.
June 14, 2002 - On-site LGPL license:
Since Pike is released under LGPL now, besides
GPL, it felt
appropriate to tag up that license nicely too.
June 4, 2002 - Anonymous CVS info:
While anonymous cvs is not yet available on the pike CVS
server, this page lists how to check out Pike via anonymous
CVS anyway.
July 30, 2001 - First reference manual beta:
The first beta version of the Pike reference manual extracted
and built with the new autodoc system is available.
August 2, 2000 - On-site GPL license:
Jan Warnstam does the world of free software a favour by
touching up the GPL license to a visually appealing and
readable version.
July 21, 2000 - pike.roxen.com project initiated:
Jan Warnstam starts building on the second generation Pike
site, pike.roxen.com, succeeding the former pike.idonex.se.
