Releasing Openads 2.3 Beta to the community has been the key focus of the Engineering Team for months now. I’m pleased to say that their persistent hard work has paid off and the Beta release is now just weeks away.
Many thanks to all those who volunteered to be part of the private beta test group. We’ve been working very closely with this group for a number of weeks now. Their feedback has enabled the developers to improve performance, features and identify any remaining bugs.
The reaction from the Beta test group has been extremely positive. The new installation and upgrade wizard has been a hit, as has the new delivery engine. New features such as enhanced targeting stats (MMM 0.3 users will be delighted!!), campaign capping and zone capping have all been well received.
Openads user Sugababes are already running the Beta version in production have remarked “We’ve had no problems upgrading to the latest version and the upgrade took no longer than 10 mins. The new beta is more stable and has an even more enterprise-level look and feel. Favourite new features are targeting statistics and having the ability to cap campaigns”
We’re making final improvements to the release so watch this space – Openads 2.3 Beta will be with you in July!

Is Openads 2.3 an update for MMM or PAN users? Or finally both?
Comment by Kevin VDS — June 29, 2007 @ 4:12 pm
Hi Kevin,
Short answer… both
Longer answer… PAN is Openads 2.0. MMM is Openads 2.3 alpha. Openads 2.3 beta will become the next stable release of Openads in due course. There is an upgrade path from both 2.0 and 2.3 alpha (and MMM 0.1 for that matter).
cheers, Oliver
