It was a long time I wrote something in my development blog, I just can't seem to be able to find the time. But I thought I'd mention that some more work has been done on Jobline, so there might be yet another release coming up next month or so. Features includes customizeable posting entry, a Polish language file and the ability to have different sets of states. Polish and Australian already added, except for US, and if you send me other lists I will add them as well.

I haven't forgotten about the Mamblog users either, even though it's harder to justify development that will probably never give me any clients. The next version will however hopefully be out next month as well, which should include fixes for it to work properly with Mambo 4.5.1 and 4.5.2.

Read on for more development thoughts.

I also found a cute site called blogbinders.com where it's possible to easily create print-on-demand books of blogs. This is of course too good to miss out on, so I've added functionality to Mamblog to work with blogbinders! This will be included in the next version.

The next release of Mamblog will hopefully also include a couple of necessary bug fixes and the ability to use some mambots with the Mamblog content. This is already working, but will have to be updated to work with Mambo 4.5.1/4.5.2 as well, so it might have to wait until after the stable release of Mamblog 1.0.

I'm also thinking of creating a Mambo component to turn any Mambo content into the format recognized by blogbinders.com, or possibly even create pdf books directly for upload on cafepress.com. I won't be able to work on this until after the next release of Mamblog though, so don't hold your breath.

Finally I've come up with an idea on how to easily add custom fields to regular Mambo content without changing a single core file. Once the above is out of the way i might have a look at this, as this is one of the major things needed before I can upgrade one of my Mambo 4.0 sites to Mambo 4.5.
