Up until now, Osimo used a 3rd party BBCode parser, mainly because I wanted to save time during the development process. Well, tonight when I launched the Osimo community forums, I discovered that the old BBCode parser was very insecure. It actually let you run Javascript through BBCode, which leaves pages wide open for exploitation. [...]
The time has finally come! The Osimo community forums are officially online, and I need to see how it holds up under a lot of users and I need more people for bug testing. You don’t need to be a programmer or even tech savvy (although I know a lot of you here are) to [...]
I’m feeling generous tonight, so I thought I would take a video of the current state of the admin panel in Osimo. Don’t expect anything fancy looking, as its purely functional right now, but enjoy what there is so far You can download the original from the Vimeo page if you can’t [...]
It’s been a little while since I’ve made a post, so I thought I would fill you in on the status of Osimo. I just recently started fall break a couple of days ago, so I’ve been able to get my hands dirty with programming again. Osimo is once again steadily coming along, but now [...]

Since I’ve started school, things haven’t been going quite as fast as they were this summer, but we’ve been able to reach some major milestones in development. Osimo now fully supports user profiles and has functions for retrieving a full memberlist. The [...]
So Osimo is further along that you probably imagined. From a normal users standpoint, Osimo is very usable. It’s currently missing user profiles, which is a big one, but that is next on the to-do list. I thought I would go ahead and give you guys a small preview of a theme [...]
A little while back, I left a cryptic blog post and link to a site about a project named “Osimo”. I’m sure many of you are wondering what this is all about, and I think its time in the development process to introduce the project and what its all about.
The short story:
Osimo is a free, [...]
