2 Years of Jucy

Today its 2 years since the first public release of Jucy.  Some might still remember the first version .. with the round red-black-blue icon. And the slow change to a more reasonable name (UC->jUCy (argh eycancer) ->Jucy).

Most important.. jucy has vastly improved since then. From being a barely usable client which could possibly keep up with some of the Linux clients at that time, by now it has evolved to being one of the most feature rich clients around. Also it changed from less than 50 downloads a month to more than 1000 downloads, which is for me quite amazing.

Another important change of this year was the move to an Open Source licence (BSD licence) so anyone interested could use the code (before the code was open for viewing but not for using...) . Though I really though about changeing this to some newly invented licence... first thing comeing to my mind would be some "Coffee-licence" where you should send the developer a pound of coffee if you appreciated the program. At least that would be more beneficial for me than some Catware licence (which requires you to pat a cat for a certain time if you like the software)!

When we are at this ... the financial sitch of the project is as good as ever. Servers are cheap... and in the last 2 years there was a total of 20€ donated which is nearly enough to accomodate for 2 Months of server costs. Which is quite unimportant.. after all this is done for fun and even though I am still a student this project won't die from lack of money. Also the coding is addictive enough and without any GF there is no lack of time in sight! So the near monthly release schedule could be kept up in future.

Where will Jucy go in future?

Some changes need to be done. First for the next Version Jucy will move to Java 6. Which has mostly only impact on Mac users. As Java 6 is there only regularly available with Snow Leopard and newer OS. Indirectly this means PowerPC-arch users have no chance at all of running Jucy anymore. Before that was possible if you had some newer OS though Tiger and older already had problems with later Jucy releases.

Moving to Java 6 will give away possibility for only a few features... Namely Scripting API should make it possible to enable Scripting in future, which migt make it possible to create soem Operator plugin with scripting support. Currently you could already do that though you would need to write Java and not Lua, also I don't see anyone really interested in writing some Operator-plugin. Currently its still only one Person writing on Jucy. Though there are already a few people helping out in the project. Besides ARJ who I recently saved this server... there is Fox who creates  new Splashs and main icons for me from time to time. Also there are the translators which recently added russian support for Jucy (sadly translation are currently halted as they are  to complex to do .. though ARJ is developing some toolsupport for the project so in future translations could be done simple). And I am still having hope in Fox one day doing a translation for Jucy to "Ancient Greece" or some other fun language worthy of a program released on April First ;-)  (Anyone interested to do Latin?).

Also on the plan is for the future to actually test versions before releasing them. So it might be possible  in future versions to select if you want to have all the latest releases or may be only the ones which have been tested for a few days (I doubt more is possible with near monthly releases).

Nah that wraps it up.

Happy third Year of Jucy

and don't get fooled today!

Hmm today I really wanted to release 0.83 ... though some filesystem crash... and me thinking that running fsck is the same as scandisc/chkdsk ...

PEBKAC at its fines... luckily  arj   my good friend and sysadmin helped me out of this mess.


Still there are things to restore. Though I am sure everything will be back to normal within a few days!

Nearly two months since last release...

 

Though here comes a new release with lots of changes. Just right before the second birthday of Jucy!  jay!!

And specially for the birthday there is thanks to Fox a new Splash and a new main Icon!

All this server crashing really was troublesome ... with forum entries all lost .. kind of sad for the history of the project. Though who cares? It's time for a fresh start.

 

V:0.83

  • Notepad plugin: Now up to five Notepads.
  • Fixed NMDC MyINFO sending localized Speedstring. (i.e. not using point if local country uses comma)
  • Now the nick in Join/Parts will be coloured according to the user joined.
  • New Database in use (HSQLDB 1.8 -> 2.0) improves speed a lot specially deleting log entries.
  • Added Crypto information to Debugging Plugin (not really helpful).
  • Fixed Problem: Upload speed being counted wrong.
  • Files that are downloaded are now immediately added to share. (finally -> Filelist refresh settings have higher max value)
  • Added Drag and Drop support
    • Files dragged from explorer into mainchat will automatically be added to share and generate a MagnetLink.
    • If you drag the file to the Text where you can write the magnet link will only be generated but not sent immediately.
    • Dragging to PM window -> only that user can download the file.
  • Away icon in Statusline for indicating current away state. (Clicking it changes away state)
  • Pressing down arrow key in search window should now again present past searches.
  • Now one can use /ShowChatterJoins in chat to enable/disable showing joins and parts of people that recently chatted. (On by default!)
  • New Path column in Finished Downloads
  • Fixed persistence storing of files that not yet downloaded TTHL.

Its time for a new Version. Once Again. And this version got bigger than usual. Not only is the changelog to gigantic. There is also a new plugin available specially targetting developers. It should help debugging connections and might therefore be interesting not only for devs but alsoo interested Operators and Powerusers.

Nah I will stop talking.. just look at the long changelog.

 

V:0.82

- Fixed partial FileList downloads causing trouble with ApexDC++. (This time for real!)
- Added encrypted active search as a new feature. (ADCS spec enhancement proposal / SUDP )
- Added KEYP protocol extension.
- Fixed closing no longer locking up UI thread. (Some OS asked the user to enforce close.)
- Selecting a transfer will now also reveal the user in the hubwindow. Doubleclick will show the folder of the corresponding file in Explorer.
- Copying text in hub/pm-window will again copy URIs to clipboard.
- Fixed some drawing issues with file transfers.
- Fixed ADC active search not working. (since 0.80 damn! nobody noticed? nobody uses ADC?)
- Fixed annoyance: After finishing download even if a file was on the same partition as the temp directory file was copied over and not just moved.
- Improved Handling of same nick/CID (NMDC/ADC) being in multiple hubs with us.
(- Potentially fixed that 100% CPU usage bug.)
- Added new plug-in that helps debugging connections.
- Improved the usericons a bit (i.e. adding Key with wrong colour palette for OP icons).
- Connection speed now shown in byte instead of bit for better readability.
- Changing Nick while being connected is now possible in ADC, no longer needs closing the hubwindow in NMDC.
- Fixed Bug: CMD in ADC using \ instead of / for hierarchical structure.
