HexRod is Moving

Posted by David Bolin

Frank Stetzer posted the following note on the Rodmakers List today:

The online Hexrod program has been running on the same web server for 12 years. I don't know if that is some kind of record or not, but the university where I work is going to pull the plug sometime this summer. So rather than wait until the last minute, as I usually do, I'm moving
Hexrod to a commercial web hosting site.

You can try out the new site at www.hexrod.net until the end of May. I've copied all the user rod libraries over to the new site as of last Monday, April 20. More info about the move is on that site. Please email me directly with any problems your encounter or suggestions for improvement.

There are not a lot of new features. At the request of our Italian friends, there is now an option for using a comma as the decimal separator. There is also the option to place the a rod in a library called Commons that can be shared among users. One minor bug was found and fixed in the move.

Thanks to all the people who have sent me requests for features and identified problems over the years. I know a lot of people have moved on to RodDNA and Flexrod and other systems, but as long as there is interest I'll try to keep the online Hexrod available.
