CTDATA Developing Slash 0.4 Multihoming Capability
CTDATA is in the process of developing multihoming capability for our customized version of the Slash Engine. Our version is code named "Slash 0.4" because it is derived from Slash 0.3, the last major release prior to Slashcode 1.x.
This will allow us to roll out Slash Engine functionality to other Web Sites in our network. These Web Sites include RCNJ.org and AAHArefs.org.
A multihoming enhancement will allow us to operate more than one Slash instance on the same server. In the past, it has been very difficult to run more than one instance of Slash on the same server because of the way persistance is handled by Apache. However, since we do not use mod_perl in our implementation, this is not an issue for us.
