I’ve just created a download section for User Contributed Themes. If you would like to have your theme included in the User Contributed Themes section, email me a zip file containing all the files necessary to use your theme along with a README file that explains how to install it, any known issues, and optional contact info for problems/questions. Please email the files to keithm@infused-solutions.com.

This release fixes some bugs in the relationship calculator and the surnames page.

Starting with this release I am including a diff file that contains the changes from the previous version. If you are using a *nix system, you can use the patch command to update your installation. For example, if you have Retrospect-GDS installed in /home/web/retrospect/, you can run the following:

cd /home/web/
wget http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/retrospect/retrospect-2.0.7_to_2.0.8.diff
patch -p0 < retrospect-2.0.7_to_2.0.8.diff


There seems to be renewed interest in adding a relationship calculator to Retrospect-GDS, so I’ve integrated a module that Brent Beardsley uploaded a couple of years ago. It has been languishing in the Bug Tracker since he uploaded it, so it needed a little love and attention to make it work with the latest version of Retrospect-GDS.

You’ll find a link to the Relationship Calculator on the Reports tab for each individual. Once you click the link you’ll be taken to a new page where you will need to know the number of an individual in order to calculate the relationship. This can be a pain, so I plan on integrating a search function in the future.

Give it a try and let me know what you think of it.
