It`s been a busy week once again.
I`ve removed flickRRS (which placed the latest flickr images in the sidebar) and replaced it with Flickr Gallery.
All photos are now organised and placed on the Photos page.
The new photoalbum is only a temporary fix. I`m still planning to use NextGen gallery instead.
Authentication is now provided by RPX.
RPX allows easy to use authentication by integrating services like OpenID, Google, Yahoo!, AOL, Windows Live, Facebook, MySpace, Blogger, VeriSign, WordPress, LiveJournal and myOpenID.
I`ve customised the order of appearance for these services. First OpenID, Google, MySpace, Facebook, Windows Live and Flickr. On the second page is Yahoo, Verisign, WordPress, LiveJournal, Blogger and AOL.

The (dutch) community site Hyves finally supports OpenID.
This means almost half of holland has got an OpenID!
The downsite is that it still doesn`t support OpenID for registering on their site.
R-LIMS 1.4.0 has been released which is the first release of the 1.4 branch.
This release features some backend changes to support charts.
The engine is now also fully compatible with Zend Server.
