Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 Licenses Lim­ited Edition

Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 Lim­ited Edi­tion allows Web Site Devel­op­ers to build sites based on the finest Script which has ever left the Semi­oman­tics site smith. Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 has been exten­sively tested by Ycad­emy Pros since Sep­tem­ber 2009 and the 2010 Release Can­di­date has been debugged since and com­pleted with some amaz­ing features.

Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 Frame­works per­form with­out Plug-ins

In the past, the per­for­mance of basic Semi­oman­tics Frame­works was based on a com­bi­na­tion of  the Word­Press back-bone, the Semi­oman­tics script  (some­times mod­i­fied), Word­Press plug-ins and a set of edit­ing and pub­lish­ing rules.

Most of the tech­ni­cal issues expe­ri­enced were caused by the plug-ins.

Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 per­forms with­out any plug-ins. We still rec­om­mend and install an anti-spam plug-in if the site allows for Word­Press Com­ments and Pings. How­ever, we expect that the tra­di­tional blog com­ments will soon be replaced with exter­nal Web 2.0 appli­ca­tions, namely with a Google Wave insert, which makes Akismet and such like obsolete.

Eco­nomic Host­ing due to low use of Memory

The absence of plug-ins decrease dra­mat­i­cally the need for server resources. Recently we have passed the need for 64 MB of mem­ory namely with some media ori­ented sites and with aggre­ga­tors. Shared host­ing allo­cat­ing 64 MB RAM or more is dif­fi­cult to find and becomes an expen­sive issue.

The Prob­lem with Plug-ins

While the Word­Press devel­op­ment is greatly depend­ing on plug-ins, which are made avail­able for free by plug-in devel­op­ers, they often con­sti­tute a stum­bling block for begin­ners and advanced users in as much as they need atten­tion and main­te­nance (updates, upgrades, some­times customization).

Most plug-ins have been straight to the point a few years ago; today most pop­u­lar plug-ins have been enriched by track­ing fea­tures and mul­ti­ple links and feeds out which are uncon­trol­lable by the aver­age user. Some plug-ins import whole exter­nal web­sites into the dash­board, dona­tion but­tons and even unre­lated third party links and features.

It is not always clear whether plug-ins actu­ally enhance the over­all per­for­mance of a site or whether the site serves merely to improve the plug-in devel­op­ers own site.

The Semi­oman­tics Solution

Semi­oman­tics has rewrit­ten plug-ins for a while now for com­mer­cial cus­tomers and cleaned out what is not actu­ally needed. Also, some “per­for­mance enhancers” have been added to the frame­work scripts to reduce the need for plug-ins. Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 uses only about 50% of the Mem­ory of com­pa­ra­ble ear­lier ver­sions, in any case clearly below 32 MB of RAM.

The Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 License

The Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 License is more than just a license to use the XO scripts and to com­mer­cial­ize it. The License includes all train­ings and sup­port needed to cus­tomize and to adapt the scripts to the needs and pref­er­ences of cus­tomers. In fact it is designed for peo­ple who would like to start their own busi­ness build­ing high per­for­mance sites for cus­tomers and it includes sup­port and work­shops to improve knowl­edge con­cern­ing web design, namely CSS, as well as Graphic Design with Pho­to­shop and basic php coding.

XO’s best per­for­mance can be reached by respect­ing a set of edit­ing and pub­lish­ing rules which apply specif­i­cally to Semi­oman­tics XO and which are the results of thor­ough in-house testing.

Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 Seminar

The first spe­cific Semi­oman­tics 2010 XO Sem­i­nar exclu­sively for License hold­ers, will take place on Jan­u­ary 9, 2010. This one day sem­i­nar will high­light the new fea­tures of XO as well as detail the most effi­cient way to cus­tomize and adapt the scripts to the needs of customers.

Also the sem­i­nar par­tic­i­pants will build a site with opti­mized XO default con­fig­u­ra­tion which will serve as a model for any cus­tomer job.

Semi­oman­tics XO addi­tional tem­plates for Photo blogs and Per­sonal may be elab­o­rated time permitting.

Invest­ment and Limitation

The Semi­oman­tics XO 2010 License has been issued in 10 only samples:

5 are Devel­oper Licenses for peo­ple who use the scripts as a base for own devel­op­ment and who will not be allowed to use the Semi­oman­tics Sig­na­ture for their out-put but who will have to brand their work. These licenses are sold out.

5 are Semi­oman­tics Busi­ness Licenses, allow­ing for the use of the Semi­oman­tics script and brand as per above descrip­tion. 2 only such licenses are avail­able at this point and reserved for YORGOO — Ycad­emy Pros till Decem­ber 16, 2009. After that date they will be with­drawn and allo­cated to exter­nal devel­op­ers in the queue.

The Busi­ness Licenses include access to spe­cial train­ings, sem­i­nars and work­shops reserved for license holders.
