Ahha! I found you you sneaky post diary link. I'm thinking
that yosh might wantt o put a quicknav bar up or soemthing.
*shrug*
Well ISFree is really close to working at 0.1. I'll
probably release as of March 1st. Now that I have it at
minimal functionality to actualy be useable I can go back
and rip out and reword all the really crappy code I did
while learning C all over again. :)
The nice thing is I think I have the answer to securing the
DB connect information and securing ISFree from the system
users. This way you don't have to have a dedicated server
for your billing. You can just use nighttime spare cycles
to do the billing runs localy. MUCH faster this way.
Definitly faster than perl will ever be.
I'm still searching for some good ideas on how to handle
one time billings, like an hour of admin work, or the sale
of a software package, etc. Can it be done or is this goign
to end up being a kludge thats necessary to make ISFree a
complete package instead of just another castrated
recurring services only package?
An extra feature I implemented by necesity... custom
monthly billing. :) I should probably go back in and setup
custom setup fees as well as the recurring feee. *sigh*
well, heres to what will hopefully be a package for
the acountants and admins that they will both like and
doesn't suck from overcomprimising! CHEERS!
