+ <body>
+ <p>ZFSguru started as front-end to ZFS but has since grown
+ into a multifunctional server appliance with its own unique
+ features. While the project is still in early development, it
+ already offers multiple unique features not found in other
+ projects. Unlike similar projects, nothing is stripped away from
+ the base operating system, meaning ZFSguru behaves as a normal
+ FreeBSD installation and thus is very versatile. The web-interface
+ is designed to unite both novice and advanced users, providing
+ both very easy to use basic functionality as well as features to
+ be appreciated by more experienced users. The modular nature of
+ the project combats the danger of bloat, whilst still allowing
+ extended functionality to be easily deployed.</p>
+
+ <p>On the 15th of August, version 0.3 of ZFSguru was released. Some
+ highlights of the new version:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>New build infrastructure allows for frequent releases of
+ system images and services in a semi-automated way.</li>
+ <li>A new GuruDB database allows for a growing number of system
+ images and servers, and provide good caching to accelerate
+ pages.</li>
+ <li>The installation procedure was given a major
+ overhaul.</li>
+ <li>In addition to the LiveCD, USB images are now available.
+ The USB image supports both legacy MBR bootcode and UEFI boot
+ support.</li>
+ <li>Many libraries in the web-interface have been
+ overhauled, in addition to many other additions to the
+ web interface.</li>
+ <li>Many improvements were made to optional add-on services,
+ such as the new Gnome 3 graphical environment.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Other progress made in the months July, August and
+ September:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>System image builds 001, 002, 003 and 004 have been
+ released for all supported branches: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3
+ (-STABLE) and 11.0 (-CURRENT).</li>
+ <li>Work on the 0.4 web-interface has started, which focuses
+ on improving network support in the web-interface.</li>
+ <li>Work on a new visual theme for the web-interface has
+ started. The new interface is likely to be included in the upcoming
+ 0.4 release.</li>
+ <li>A new master server is being prepared, which is likely to be
+ operational in December.</li>
+ <li>A new website is being worked on, to be launched the 1st
+ of January, 2016.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </body>

+ <help>
+ <task>
+ <p>The new Gnome 3 desktop does not work for everyone
+ and still has issues. Anyone capable of diagnosing these issues
+ can give the Gnome 3 LiveCD a try. Please see the linked
+ forum thread for more information.</p>
+ </task>
+
+ <task>
+ <p>Several ports fail to compile with our own build
+ infrastructure, and require bug reports in order to get
+ them fixed upstream.</p>
+ </task>
+
+ <task>
+ <p>A 'State of the Project 2015' is due in Q4, providing an
+ overview for future development of the project.</p>
