Features


> Hi Folks,
> 
> Here's a list of the new features that will be included in Rumpus  
> 6.2.  Details on when the new version will be available will follow in  
> a day or 2.

> 
> File Name and Content Search
> 
>   Web users can now perform text searches to find files by name
>   or content.  Powered by the SpotLight search engine running on
>   the server, search results are restricted to each user's
>   content area and the folder in which the search is performed,
>   maintaining server security and making it easy for users to
>   control the scope of their queries.
> 
> Growl Notifications
> 
>   Rumpus now supports Growl, the popular notification system for
>   OS X.  All Rumpus notices, including file uploads, downloads,
>   and administrator events can be directed to Growl
>   notifications for simple, quick and unintrusive display, even
>   across a network or to an iPhone (with the use of a 3rd party
>   iPhone app).
> 
> iPhone Optimized Web Interface
> 
>   While many file management tasks, such as uploading files,
>   don't make sense for mobile users, viewing server content
>   using an iPhone is increasingly common.  Rumpus 6.2 includes a
>   new, simplified, iPhone-specific interface optimized for
>   viewing media files on the go.
> 
> New Web Appearance Options
> 
>   An entirely new WFM template set, called "Modern", has been
>   added, offering an optional sleek new look to the Rumpus Web
>   File Manager.  All Rumpus appearances can also make use of new
>   background fades and patterns, and display simplified file
>   listings with pop-up menu file actions.
> 
> Automatic Drop Shipping
> 
>   When a file is drop shipped, an e-mail which contains an
>   automatic file download link is sent to a recipient, allowing
>   large files to be transferred reliably.  Rumpus 6.2 offers a
>   built-in drop ship function which allows known Rumpus users to
>   quickly and easily drop ship files to anyone on the Internet.
> 
> Guest Uploads By Request
> 
>   Maxum has also added what can best be described as "reverse
>   drop shipping", which we call "File Requests".  Using a File
>   Request, any Rumpus user can allow anyone, anywhere on the
>   Internet to send a file simply by clicking a single-use file
>   transfer link in an e-mail message.  Files uploaded by guests
>   are delivered to the Rumpus user's content folder, and the
>   Rumpus user is notified the moment the file has arrived.
