Hi Guys,

I just started out to test the 5.4.0RC.

Some comments:

1. The tarball of the vtiger 5.4 source extracts, on Linux, with 
everything as 777 (rwxrwxrwx)! There is no need to do this and it is bad 
practice and it is opening up the system to security issues.

There are only a few directories and files that need to have write 
permissions at all (and only to the process owner, normally the apache 
process), the only files which need to be executable are the bash cron 
scripts (although even that isn't totally necessary as they could be 
loaded by a bash shell.

2. I sent Srihari an updated language pack on the 1st March for 5.4.0. 
It isn't the one supplied in the RC tarball. Afterwarrds I was told 
about the changes to Potentials and Accounts. Which was a major piece of 
work due to the spelling of organisation. I spent an age doing the 
language pack changes on http://labs.vtiger.in/i18n/ but this doesn't 
seem to be running anymore. Please can you send me the British language 
pack from the http://labs.vtiger.in/i18n/ so I can update it where 
necessary? I do not have the time to do that whole job from scratch again.

3. From a quick test it looks like bug 
http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/7240 might have been 
fixed but there is no mention of anything being done on the TRAC record. 
Has it been fixed?

4. The new Report graphs can get really confusing when you play with the 
group-by settings. I think it really needs a separate selection for X & 
Y labels etc...

Otherwise, it is looking good so far!

Cheers

Al
