Welcome to : CRE Loaded 6.1 beta

Brought to you by the CRE Loaded Project Team at creloaded.com and the fine folks at Chain Reaction Web.

We have many new features this release, and some news to share.  The Contribution List below will show a great deal of change.  It has been updated to reflect previously unreported enhancements that took place in the 6.042 release, and the many improvements and updated contributions as well as some welcome new features.

First, some team news.  Charles Williams, Jr - Project Manager for CRE Loaded 6 is leaving to pursue other opportunities.  This release, and an upcoming upgrade to the Products Attributes system will mark his final work as Project Manager.  We thank him for the hard work and professional programming he has brought to the project, and wish him well in his new position.

We welcome David M. Graham as the new Project Manager.  Also joining us is Kerry Watson, of oscommercemanuals.com .  Kerry is our new Documentation Team Leader.  Documentation is an important part of our project, and we are sure everyone will welcome the new users guides and technical manuals she will be producing over the next few months.

Thanks go to Tom O'Neill for his hard work during this transition in the final days of preparing this release.  With team members of this caliber, CRE Loaded will certainly continue to meet ever increasing standards of excellence.  The support of Sabrina Hogan, project manager at chainreactionweb.com and Mike Hogan, of Chain Reaction Web's internal Loaded 6 technical support are much appreciated.  A special thanks to Ian Wilson's Zen Cart team, for their gracious donation of a new mySQL Backup tool.  Those of you with large catalogs will enjoy this tool a great deal, we're sure.

Another new feature this release is the advent of our Google Ad Donation program.  In the Banner Manager you will find two example banners.  One banner each will be displayed in an infobox, and the footer 468x60 group.  These Google Adsense banners offer an excellenet example of how to implement your own Google Adsense campaigns.  Each is associated with the CRE Loaded Projects donation account.   All you have to do to make an easy donation to the CRE Project with no out of pocket expense is leave these banners in place.  Google will adjust the ads to fit your content.  We would appreciate your voluntary support of this program, in support of the efforts which bring you the following features :
