Michael Aivaliotis Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I'm very excited to announce that LAVA has accepted an invitation to participate in the VI Package Network Beta. The VI Package Network is a distribution platform for tools created by the LabVIEW community. The LAVA Code Repository code will be made available for installation in VI Package Manager along side the OpenG add-ons for LabVIEW (which are already part of the VI Package Network). Having the LAVA Code Repository code available on the VI Package Network will provide great benefits to the LAVA and LabVIEW communities such as: A wider reach for code developers to expose their work to thousands of VIPM users. Easier install and uninstall of LAVA CR code Easier upgrade to new versions of LAVA CR code Unique subpalette called LAVA with our logo. LAVA CR Code will still be available for download from the LAVA website as before, however it will now also be available in the new VI Package (*.VIP) file format. LAVA CR code developers can opt out of the VI Package Network. In that case the files will remain in the ZIP file format. Submissions to the VI Package Network should be in the VI Package format and can be created using VI Package Manager. JKI is generously donated VIPM Professional licenses to the LAVA Code Repository assessment team, in order to facilitate the submission process. More details on the new submission process will be outlined in the days to come and will be available here. Until we iron out the kinks, the old submission process using ZIP files is still in effect. Existing LAVA CR code we will be gradually migrated to the new VI Package format and submitted to the VI Package Network. To facilitate this, I will be contacting every code submitter to get their approval and in turn coordinating the packaging and distribution process. I'm very excited to see this development and look forward to having more high quality LabVIEW code available on the VI Package Network produced by the great talent here on LAVA. Please post any questions in this thread. Quote Link to comment
