For some time no messages from me in this forum. Normal work has kept me very busy, there was not much time left for communicating about the progress on the Events module.

That said, that did not mean that things on a new Events module came to a halt. We are currently working on Events 05.02.00.

Roger has been working on new enhancements, most notably items for Search Engine Optimization, such as the possibility to set page title and description on Event detail display and, (I think this is the first core module to do so), input to the search engine SiteMap that is generated by a DNN site (SiteMap.aspx). And, not to forget, a better option for the list display of Events, better ToolTip and much more.

I have recruited a new team members some time ago, Alain. I hope he is able to finish in the next few weeks one of the enhancements we want to accomplish: a better UX for category and location maintenance by use of Telerik controls via the DNN Wrappers. This will be the first part of the Telerik control implementation, more are planned for new releases of Events

New enhancements will need at least DNN 5.5.0 if you want to run Events 5.2.0, but we assume that you might even want to step forward to DNN 5.6.1. Not a bad idea BTW, seeing the security bulletins related to issues fiexd in DNN 5.6.1.

I have spent this afternoon preparing and testing the first alfa release pacakges. When time is ripe, I will make them available on CodePlex. In the mean time, you can have a look at the 37 issues (as of now) that are covered by the upcoming Events 05.02.00 release, if you give the DNNEvents codeplex issue list (http://dnnevents.codeplex.com/workite...) for Release 05.02.x a look, you will be fully informed about all details for the issues that are covered.

Stay tuned!
