Gregarius 0.6.0 was just released.
This version is based on the long standing 0.5.5 development branch and fixes a moderately important security issue.
All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible. [upgrade guide]
Last month, Gregarius 0.5.4 was released. Unfortunately, the development team was so busy working on improving Gregarius even further, we never got around to announcing 0.5.4 here!
In order to rectify this oversight for you, our loyal readers, read on to learn about a number of the new features in Gregarius 0.5.4.
(more…)
A security hole, which allows for arbitrary code execution, has been recently discovered in the Snoopy web client library, which is bundled with Gregarius.
Only Gregarius installations which are publicly accessible on the Internet, and whose administration area is not password-protected are affected, but to avoid unnecessary risk Gregarius 0.5.2 has been re-released with a fix for this security hole. You are strongly encouraged to upgrade your installation.
You should either:
Download the updated release from sourceforge.net: make sure you download either of rss-0.5.2a.tar.gz or rss-0.5.2a.zip, or:
Replace the rss/extlib/Snoopy.inc.php file with the fixed version, or:
Upgrade your installation using a nightly build.
We apologize for the inconvenience :)
Gregarius 0.5.2 was just released, you can download it from the sourceforge.net download page.

Changes since 0.4.2:

Feed and Folder collapsing, as well as feed updating, are now handled via AJAX.
An RSS feed for tags has been added.

And while we’re there, please allow me thank the crew from the gregarius-dev mailing list for their contributed code, their suggestions and support!
Update: because of tiny mistake in the dbstruct.sql file (unneeded for most users) I decided to re-release the packages. Make sure you download rss-0.5.0a.tar.gz or rss-0.5.0a.zip

I’ve also updated the TODO document to reflect a couple feature ideas I’d like to implement for version 0.5
Gregarius 0.3.8 was just released, introducing a brand new item tagging system that has been in the works for the past couple weeks!
Tagging of items is done through AJAX (via the SAJAX toolkit), allowing users to edit tags transparently, without the need of page-reloading. The process has been tested on most recent browsers (Firefox 1.0+, Safari 1.2.4, IE6.)
New URLs introduced with this tagging system are:
/tag/sometag: lists the items that have been tagged “sometag”
/tag/: weighted list of all used tags
Another interesting new feature is an on the fly database schema generation/update, e.g. no more manual importing of db table definitions: tables are now automatically generated when needed. Database table prefix support has also been greatly improved.
Complete changelog:
Introduced tagging system for items
Automatic db schema generation/update
Ability to turn off feed metainfo in the feed side column (…)
Ability to collapse folders in the feeds side column (…)
Added a subscription bookmarklet
Optgroups in the search form (…)
A plethora of smaller bugs fixed
Gregarius 0.3.8 can be downloaded here.
Edit: I’ve just noticed an annoying IE6-related bug and have re-released the 0.3.8 archives with a fix. Please make sure your download archives are named rss-0.3.8-1.[zip|tar.gz]
Since several users have submitted bugs related to missing files in the admin section I just released a new version of Gregarius, which should correct this problem.
You can download Gregarius 0.3.6 here.
The problem was triggered when apache was lacking the mod_rewrite module, which would prevent accessing the admin section.
Changelog:
Fixed a bug that would prevent accessing the admin section when mod_rewrite is not enabled
Fixed a bug which would prevent non-english language packs to work in the admin section.
Added item pruning to the admin section, which allows you to delete items older than a given period.
Gregarius 0.3.4 was released today!
Changelog:
Database backed configuration
Stylesheet improvements
Refactoring of the administration section
Paginated search results
Support for table name prefixes
Numerous minor bug fixes
