WiCap-PHP is a very simple captive portal for ''OpenBSD 3.5'' (and maybe other versions). Currently it is maintained by CalebPhillips, although he may get busy and abandon it like so many other projects. This page will earn content as it seems prudent, good to create it at any rate. |

As of August, 2004 the most recent release is "beta", which should be robust enough and well enough debugged for most applications |
As of November, 2005, the most recent version is ''delta''. I am making an interim release which contains some bug fixes and will be the last stable release before ''epsilon''. |

Because BenjaminJencks made it more-betterer, I am not entirely sure about an upgrade path. If Wicap-PHP needs feature additions, I may make them in his, or blend the two into a sweet, delicious, open-source stew. "Science is a process of correction" (Stephen Jay Gould, Wonderful Life, p. 127 (footnote)). |
Although, his improvements made the ''beta'' version much better, ''delta'' incorporates his changes, with one exception, ''delta'' is written in C and PHP, no Python. My rationale behind this is that Python is not installed with OpenBSD 3.7 by default, and adding it takes significant space, since my Node is using a 256 MB Compact-Flash card for storage, this savings is needed. If you have Python installed, you may want to check out his fork. |
