I am now delaying the opening of JJPOP till September 1st, 2006. This is still a tenative start date but I will really try to meet this date. In the rare case I do not switch servers, I might be able to finish it before then.

The delay is due to the lack of API functions that will exist on the new server that JJPOP’s current system is written around. In other words, I have to completely rewrite the backend to the JJPOP service, this will amount well to over 750 lines of coding that will have to be changed. Unfortunatly, the API made it easier to make the service, so the new scripts may contain well into the couple thousand lines of code.

Actually, at the moment, the service runs fine on the current server and can be used. In fact, a couple people are using it who have special permission. I just don’t want to open it now and have to close it back for a month or two later.

Anyways, I will aim to have that date listed above my goal. Of course, this is the 3rd time I think I have pushed it back…Hopefully, the last.
