XAMPP Usability Survey 2008

We are planning to redesign the demo pages for one of the next releases of XAMPP. Our demo pages are six years old by now and are screaming for an update.

To make sure that we are not just following our personal preferences, we are now looking for

volunteers for our usability survey.

Thank you for taking part and special thanks to Karin Kunkel, Sonja Uhl and Constanze Weiland, who are carrying out this survey for us.

Merry X'mas with new XAMPP versions!

With new versions of XAMPP for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X we wish you all a merry christmas, snow on your server farm and a warming processor in everyones heart! ;)

In all three Xmas gifts we updated MySQL to 5.0.51, PHP to 5.2.5 and phpMyAdmin to 2.11.3. But we didn't update Perl because the new 5.10.0 seems to be a development version, and in XAMPP we only support "stable" versions.
