OK:

For those of us who like to live on the bleeding edge, who are just hopping to see all Ilija has done (and probably have to eat some of our previous words and comments), and who are really really jumping to use some of the new functionalities...

AND who know what we're about to do, how to do a SQL db backup & restore, etc...

<b>ANY REASON</b> we know of at this point not to move aC 1.1 to provisional live status for the weekend?

yes, some issues that prevent functionality like adding users. I would wait... coming from someone using it in a live production right now, I needed the global time reporting immediately, but I would not recommend it for those looking to upgrade early. It is after all, only Beta.

Is that all?

INSERT INTO ... (id, company_id, role_id, first_name, last_name, password, ..)

OK, user_config_options ain't that simple to edit manually, but... so far, you're encouraging me :P

Sorry, not adding users into the program, adding users to projects.

In 1.06, looks to be (id, user_id, project_id), where id is used as the key/sequence. Anything else?

(Presuming no changes in that table, of course...)

And: :P

response from support: "No, there is not because activeCollab uses serialized permission array in project_users table."

Now that's a challenge. Friggin' serialized arrays, who needs 'em?

Just a little offtopic for people who like development discussions - I was always about data normalization, adding tables that made sense etc, but lately I started to like hacks like serialization and aggregation of multiple tables into one. Because we are committed to keep system requirements low we support MySQL 3.x and 4.x. With that limitation we can use database as storage engine only and do most of the processing in PHP. In situations like that I just learned to love serialization and do stuff that would probably get me expelled form most CS courses :)

Good news is that I'm not a script kiddie and pretty much know what I'm doing so no need to worry :D

@RCourtade:

Yeah, I completely forgot that you can do this:

1. Insert record in project_users table and set permissions to 'N;'
2. Use change permissions screen from app to set any permissions you want.

You are having problems with select users dialog, not with permissions.

We'll see to provide fixes to most annoying early beta bugs ASAP. While we highly recommend that you don't use beta in production some will do and this way we can make your life a bit easier.

All I can say is that the iphone application is the bees knees. I'll be upgrading to the full corp version once 1.1 is finalized. I'm really glad to see you guys have been listening to feedback and are continuing to develop this app. It's been well worth the money.
