Jon,
Just to confirm - I tested the latest beta on Linux WINE. The test wasn't extensive, but I've worked with this program enough on Linux to know that it usually either works or it doesn't.
Seems to run fine. I really like the changes you made with the Helm and Crew tabs. It did take me a moment to realize I had to turn on extended competitor information to get the tabs for anything beyond helm and crew. You might consider a tiny help line under that tab telling users they what they need to do to get the tabs for more than two crew (our Lightning and J/24 sailors would appreciate that!).
One question: I notice in the templates there are internal variables such as "venue.web" or "event.email". Is there a list anywhere of all the internal variables that are available? I'd like to create some custom templates.
Keep up the good work, and thanks again for carrying the torch on Sailwave!
Andy
Thanks for testing that Andy, and I like your idea of a little help line
Colin is working on the JavaScript at the moment (Yes he’s still around) and once he has finished his mods I’m sure we will get a list of all the variables.
