ChatServe for IP.Chat 1.2.x Released... AND IT IS FREE!

Yes, that is correct, free. After many hours of deliberating on pricing, to sell or not to sell, I decided to release the project as free software for anyone to use.(With certain restrictions in the license agreement.)

The installation instructions require some experience in uploading and installing PHP software.

Updated requirements to run ChatServe:

• PHP 5.2.0+(5.3.0+ recommended) PHP 5.2 is officially marked as end of life support by the PHP Team. PHP 5.3 is matured and is highly recommended for production use of ChatServe.
  
• MySQL 5.0+(5.1 recommend) ChatServe officially supports UTF8 with utf8_unicode_ci or utf8_general_ci encoding.(This will be setup automatically if your server supports it.) Your MySQL installation must support InnoDB. If you host your own database servers and can upgrade them, I highly recommend using Percona's drop in InnoDB replacement for maximum performance and reliability.
  
• Memcache support will be dropped for the initial release of ChatServe due to the lack of testing. I want this feature to work 100% before enabling it.

It has been longer than the one month expected time frame for the release of ChatServe, but this brings good news! The release candidate has been running on two third party sites successfully with only a few minor hiccups that will be fixed by the retail release.
