It looks like we will have Clarion 7.1 released in the next two weeks. A new announcement has been posted here
I am looking forward to all its new features, from a programmers point of view.
And this should flow through to some happier users. There will be quite a lot of conversion and testing to do, but it should all be worthwhile.

Well I tried…
I have had a hosting account at DreamHost for about a year and have finally given up on it.
They do not provide a CPanel interface to manage the hosted site, but a script based site manager of their own design.
I found it most un-intuitive and have closed my account there. I know that they think their site management scripting is the best thing since sliced-bread, but for me, I was spending too much time trying to find things I wanted.
Give me CPanel any day!
So I have moved the site that was with them to a new host I am trialling, that being RapidVPS.com At least now I get a CPanel to work with.

Having lived most of my life in Australia, I first saw actual snow about 15 years ago on the Swiss Alps. But it was summer there at the time so I did not see snow falling, and had never seen it fall until last month. We were driving up Mt Rainier (just south of Seattle), and it started to snow as we drove higher.
This was a first for me, but Candace had seen it all before!
Hey! What is all that white stuff falling here?

We recently visited the Seattle and Port Angeles areas in Washington. There was some fabulous scenery. We also liked Seattle. It was a good time of year to be there (not too cold yet), and the leaves on the trees were just beginning to change colours.
After Seattle, we headed to Port Angeles where we caught up with friends Sue and Arnor shown here…
It was a cool day, and we had just been to the top of a nearby mountain. In this photo, you can see a glacier in the centre of the photo. This photo was taken up at about 5200 feet in the Mt Olympia National Park.
We also visited the Boeing plant just north of Seattle. It was a great tour. Managed to see a few of the new DreamLiner 787s on the factory floor.
We recently returned from LAX to Sydney an a new Qantas A380. This was a good experience and the very large plane was great to travel on. It was perhaps quieter than the usual Boeing B747 we usually travel on when taking this route.
We were in Cattle-class and the seating was (or seemed to be) a little more spacious than the B747.
See my notes at my test Joomla site for more.
