Hello Squadron,

MAJ Carl Lost reporting in for the Squadron of Sin for this week.


LT Fish has been AWOLED by me, which saddes me a bit but not too much because I can't tolerate a pilot doing absolutely nothing. Sorry Fish, you have been a nice pilot but I would have wished some communication form you at all. You may remove yourself from the eGroups at your leisure. I shall wait with it until september so you MIGHT have a chance to explain.

Flag Changes
13:59 - HA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
VA Khadgar has decided to step down as COM of the ISD Grey Wolf. The Flight Office thanks him for the work he did as a Flag for his Ship and the TIE Corps. A replacement has already been selected: Congratulations go out to Vice Admiral Sarin who takes over command of the Grey Wolf for a second time!

I'm also pleased to be able to announce that the new Wing Commander of Wing XIX has been selected and approved. Congratulations go out to Major Xander Drax!

New EHCOC Site
09:03 - VA Kyle Katarn [Kyle.Katarn@isdcolossus.com]
The new EHCOC Site is thanks to my COOA Autoris almost finished. Minor changes will be made from me today and tomorrow. However most stuff is working! Check it out here.

SquadFirst+
04:25 - HA Ari [ari@tiecorps.org]
SquadFirst revolutionized the way CMDRs produced their websites. Since its conception over 25 squadrons had chosen to use a SquadFirst site. But, we weren't satisfied with just making a squadron management script. So, we began to make a website management script for wings, then for ships, and for battlegroups. But, why stop there? Soon enough support was added for the Infiltrator Wing, the Dark Brotherhood, and the Hammer's Fist.

The end result is SquadFirst+, one of the most ambitious projects ever created by the Internet Office. For the past month, MAJ Alex Foley has been developing the next generation of management scripts. And today, it makes me very proud to announce that SquadFirst+ v2.0.0 has been released. 6976 lines of code. Over 100 man hours of work. It's the upgrade that a project like SquadFirst deserved.

Also included with SquadFirst+ are 4 new themes. A new theming system within SF+ makes it much easier to make your own theme, having to know practically no PHP whatsoever. The new themes featured are AT-AT for the Hammer's Fist (by Alex Foley), Emperor's Hammer: Classic Scenes, the new default theme for SF+ (by Alex Foley), Stonesaber, a great new Dark Brotherhood theme (by MAJ Xander Drax), and TIE Phantom, a holonet-looking new theme for the TIE Corps (by MAJ Xander Drax and FA Leeson).

With SquadFirst+ comes a new SquadFirst website located still at http://squadfirst.minos.net. Besides a new design, the new site also hosts The Registry, which houses a master list of all SquadFirst+ sites. Gain inspiration, find custom themes, check out custom code; whatever the end result, The Registry will extend SquadFirst+ into a community of developers. We hope you enjoy SquadFirst+!

On a side note, SquadFirst+'s release means that there should be no TC unit without a site, as per the TC Internet Guidelines. Unit leaders (CMDRs, WCs, BGCOMs, etc.) who do not comply will be recommended to the FO for removal.

War Office Moves
02:28 - HA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
The War Office has moved it's location to http://waroffice.minos.net. On this site you'll find all the information you need on wargaming in the TIE Corps and what you need for your own games.
**********************************************

I will continue to pursue my goal of setting up a comp when I am back from my vacations in France (effective next wednesday util the 27th :) ).

All in all, I am glad that communication doesn't break off although I wished oyu 'd mail me some more. But hold it form next wednesday until the following wedneday :)


respectfully,

MAJ Carl Lost
