Thread: Automatic registration on Downloading sites using a PAD file
Dear friends, Just a quick note to say that a common XML standard, called PAD format, enables automatic registration/updates on downloading sites. The specifications of PAD can be found here: http://www.asp-shareware.org/pad If you enter "pgadmin" on http://www.asp-shareware.org/pad/padlib.asp and click "Search", you will find "EMS PostgreSQL Manager". Smart, hum? Now, enter "mysql" and "postgresql"... Thanks to PAD, it should be easy to spead pgAdmin III on downloading sites. A preview of pgAdmin III PAD file can be found here: http://pgadmin.postgresql.org/pgadmin3/cnt/pgadmin3.xml There are a very few obligations: one of them is that it is required to point directly to installer files (.zip), which means in our case choose the most five largest mirrors in the PostgreSQL list. By the way, the PAD file includes language information. So, if all of you could update the web site translation from the translation page, this would be a big "plus". The links: http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/af_ZA/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/fa_IR/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/id_ID/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/ja_JP/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/ru_RU/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/tr_TR/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po http://developer.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/pgadmin3_website.po Cheers, Jean-Michel

The rest of the file advertises different platforms, for which a .zip is no use. - Do we support NT4? Regards, Dave.
