As Drew Millen and Steven Myhill-Jones were reviewing content for the October edition of the Geocortex Technology: Current Status & the Road Ahead webinar, it was concluded that October has been a heads-down development month with no new releases or sufficient / significant developments to share. Rather than repeating the content from last month (the September recording is available for viewing anytime), we’ve decided to cancel tomorrow’s webinar.
Instead, we thought we’d provide a quick email summary of a few noteworthy items that have come up over the last month:
- Geocortex Essentials 4 is approaching, and we recently made a decision to require a minimum version of Microsoft .NET 4.5 for this release. Full details were emailed to partners and licensees, and posted on our public blog and the announcements section of the Geocortex Support Center forum. So far we haven’t received any negative feedback regarding the announcement or decision.
- In late September, Google announced that Chrome will phase out support for the NPAPI plug-in technology (which happens to be used by Microsoft Silverlight). For more information on the topic, and for Latitude’s response please see the Geocortex Blog.
- Towards the end of the year (in sync with Geocortex Essentials 4.0) Latitude Geographics will release the 1.1 version of the Geocortex App Framework (formerly called the Geocortex App). Geocortex App Framework 1.1 adds support for Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems, so field workers using Windows laptops in disconnected environments can take their maps and data offline.
- Also note that as of the Geocortex Viewer for HTML5 2.0 release scheduled towards the end of the year, offline applications built using the Geocortex Viewer for HTML5 will require the Geocortex App Framework (we’re realized very few folks will ever actually go offline with guaranteed less than 10MB of data, so we concluded a focus on a pure browser-based HTML5 approach was unnecessary).
We’ll be back next month with our regularly scheduled webinar (register here for the Wednesday November 20 at 10:00 AM PST event).
