Deskzilla 1.5 Beta 1 Is Available

August 8, 2007

Today we are glad to release a beta version of Deskzilla 1.5. This version adds a number of important features, as well as minor improvements and bug fixes.

Change list:

  • #286 Support custom fields
  • #53 Support private comments
  • #598 Support reordering by custom field
  • #629 Switch from "collections" to "tags": new tagging action, viewing tags
  • #394 A query constraint "issue is tagged with"
  • #616 Allow to create new tag right in the "tag issue" dialog
  • #452 Export from tabular distribution
  • #139 HTML parsing won't allow invalid comments
  • #443 Editable combobox enhancements (was: auto-completion)
  • #533 The fact that the bug is being uploaded is not properly shown to the user
  • #582 Ignore unparseable time zone id when parsing timestamps received from Bugzilla
  • #602 OK button disabled even after selecting email address
  • #613 Date/time/timestamp parser incorrectly treats China Standard Time (CST) as Central Standard Time (also CST)
  • #634 Attached file name is displayed/uploaded incorrectly when it contains national letters
  • #636 Exception: NPE at z.bge.a (after drag-and-drop)
  • #641 Exception: AIOOBE in DefaultTableHeaderUI due to Apple's UI not clearing draggingColumn

Please backup your workspace before upgrading, because the new version will make irreversible changes to the local database to migrate from old Collections to new Tags.

There are few weeks before the final release, so there's still time to make final changes to the new features. Please try them out and let us know what you think!
