Looks extremely inefficient to me. I mean, it sets language and configuration keys EVERY TIME the application requests one. Come on!

I'm with Veracon on this one. A completely infantile system. I wouldn't even call this a 1.4 release. Maybe a 0.3b. Code is barely commented, still using mysql_query instead of a DA layer (so others could replace it with their own) and the presentation majority of the app is hard-coded!!!!

I'm not impressed. Sorry.

I have to agree with the previous comments .... since when exactly is it considered good to stuff a lot of code into a single file, just to be able to say "it only has one file!". Not like that matters at all. I'd rather have 10 nicely organized files instead of this.

And hard-coded HTML is so '90s. XML/XSLT anyone?

Good comments about snews but you all have missed the point. The code is thier to be improved upon, so the version number is off it's still better than 1.2 :) there is still more work to be done on the code I think too as well.

So If you can walk the talk Change the code and make it better :) it' Free
