[ANNOUNCE] Freeside 1.4.1, open-source billing for ISPs
Hi,
I'm pleased to announce the release of Freeside 1.4.1.
Freeside is an open-source, web-based billing and account administration
package for ISPs, web hosting providers, and other online businesses.
You can download the new version, read the documentation, and play with
a web demo at <http://www.sisd.com/freeside>.
Although Freeside is free software, it is supported commercially with
installation, customization, training and support services. Please
consider our services and help support the development of the software!
ObDebian: Freeside is not yet packaged (assistance is welcome)
but all dependances are packaged.
Significant changes since 1.4.0:
Major:
- New package price plans to charge for online time or bandwidth based
on direct query if a FreeRADIUS, ICRADIUS or Radiator radacct table.
Time online and bandwidth used this billing cycle shown on view
account screen.

- MySQL 4.1.0 is available with subquery support; updated the install
documentation, testing is welcome
New reports:
- suspended package browse

Web UI:
- relaxed "first package" restrictions; will find any appropriate
service with quantity 1
- "Cancel this customer" button to cancel all packages.

Exports:

Misc:

with current Mason and PostgreSQL)
