Hi all,<br>
I just wanted to let you all know that I have released my RTChecker software as opensource.<br>
<br>
RTChecker is a software that sits in the tray of your Windows desktop and notifies you when there are new tickets, or when a ticket that was assigned to you has been reopened.<br>
RTChecker connects to your RT installation trough HTTP and works by issuing REST requests.
<b>You NEED RT 4.2.2+.</b><br>
<br>
I have been developing and enhancing RTChecker since 2009 for our internal use. <br>
<br>
Lately I decided to enhance it to make it sufficiently general that it could be used from others as well, and to opensource it under the GPL license.<br>
<br>
Presently it is Windows only but I hope to make a Linux version soon thanks to mono (or to write a python port if mono proves not to be mature enough).<br>
<br>
There are also other features that I would like to add soon, like reminders notification and quick delete.<br>
<br>
You can access the source code at the following address <a href="https://www.assembla.com/code/rtcheckerv2/subversion/nodes.">
https://www.assembla.com/code/rtcheckerv2/subversion/nodes.</a><br>
Also, a binary release is available from my Dropbox public folder here: <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tnz21nfbcpwtijb/KN7beRGVoX/RTChecker.">

<br>
RTChecker is distributed as a "click-once" application so you have to open the "publish.htm" file with Internet Explorer.
<br>
I am presently having some difficulties convincing IE to correctly open the file, so I may change the distribution method soon, although it has been working well internally for years. The good thing about clic-once is automatic updates, but let's see what I
can do with it.<br>
<br>
RTChecker took a lot of hours of development in my spare time, so if you find it useful please donate (see link in the "About" box).<br>
I will also happily accept patches if you are so inclined.<br>
<br>
A little web page with help and a tutorial will follow soon, but I hope it is easy enough to be used without help for now. Languages supported are english and italian presently.<br>
<br>
Bye<br>
Cris<br>
