I've been having some fun with Ray Camden's Galleon Forums application and decided to add some features to it that I like.

• OPTIONAL BBML support - DONE
• OPTIONAL Remote Avatar support - DONE
• OPTIONAL Signature support - DONE
• Subscription update URLS send you directly to new message rather than fromt page
• OPTIONAL message save behavior that mimics phpBB (success indcation plus links to your message and back to the thread index, automatically refreshing back to your message)
• And more...

Ray has said that he'll probably integrate these changes into the core product, and since I'm making them configurable options, you don't have to use them.

For more details, check out the Galleon Enhanced forum on this web site.

Ray Camden announced today that he has released his CanvasWiki application to the open source community.  After someone blatantly ripped off his Blog code, Ray has gone with a more "official" license for CanvasWiki - the Apache License Version 2.0.

According to Ray's site:

Canvas is a ColdFusion Wiki built to allow for community-based editing of content. It follows basic Wiki standards by allowing anyone to edit content, while keeping careful track of the history of each document added to the Wiki. Canvas was built using Model-Glue.
