    Anahita™ Groups 1.0 Birth release now available 

    This is the first birth release in the collection Anahita™ social applications and one of the most essential ones. We have been using the Anahita™ Groups for about 6 months now to provide service and support to the Anahitapolis members. The only problem was that until recently only the website administrators were able to create and maintain groups. In the 1.0 Birth release any of user types within the system, depending on the configuration, can be allowed to create their own groups, assign administrators, and maintain them.

    Anahita Groups Profile

    An Anahita™ group profile is just like a person profile except that a group represents a collection of people coming together to collaborate and stay updated in regards with a shared goal or context. A group has:

    1. an avatar
    2. identity (title, description)
    3. a story feed
    4. a social graph
    5. a collection of social application that are available within it such as (Photos, Discussions, blogs, etc.)

     

    Anahita Social Apps within a group

    Instances of applications such as discussions, photos, blogs, etc. work within group and people profiles. A group can be followed just like how a person can be followed. A group is entitled to privacy just like a person is entitled to privacy. Group administrators have the option to remove or ban followers from a group.

    To learn more about the Anahita™ Groups visit this page. Premium members can download the package and install it on the Anahita™ 1.5.3 and later.

      Congratulations. Anahita is really coming together. Like the fact you mentioned blogs a few times. Must mean its getting closer?

    • Rastin Mehr 4:29 am on March 8, 2011 Permalink

      Thank you @Eric :)

      Closer to what?

    • Eric Doriean 8:34 pm on March 8, 2011 Permalink

      Closer to having the blog functionality in Anahita

    • Rastin Mehr 9:37 pm on March 8, 2011 Permalink

      Oh you are waiting for the blog! We will have blogs after the folksonomy libraries are implemented in the next release. Building the blogs after that will be quite simple!

    • Eric Doriean 4:07 am on March 11, 2011 Permalink

      Cool as. I like it when you use words like folksonomy

    • K 12:43 am on March 13, 2011 Permalink

      Please update your broken link for photos for the Anahita premium package. I purchased it yesterday and I do not have time to wait 72 hours for your company to get back to me. This is not acceptable. Time is money. please update this problem. Many thanks!

    • Rastin Mehr 1:37 am on March 13, 2011 Permalink

      @K the link was broken for a short while because we are reorganizing the SVN and building the Anahita Photos Birth release as we speak. We apologize for the inconvenience. The link has been updated and if you can wait a bit longer we will have the stable packages ready too soon. I’ve just sent you an email with more information.

    Tachyon – The first Anahita compatible template from RocketTheme 

    RocketTheme Tachyon Template and Anahita Groups

    The great folks at the RockeTheme have been working for us to make their new template – Tachyon - which is compatible with the Anahita™ Social Networking Engine. The template was released yesterday and now it is available to all the RocketTheme paid members.

    I must say it was such a pleasure working with the RT guys. They are just amazing and I really had fun during this collaboration. So thank you so much!

    • Andy Miller, the founder and CEO of RocketTheme.com for making this possible and providing last minute feature request support.
    • Brian Towles for the last minute feature implementation
    • James Spencer for putting together the updates in the last minute and being so patient with us.

    More On the Tachyon Template and Anahita

    The minimalist Tachyon template from RocketTheme provides styling for the Anahita™ main user interfaces as well as 4 of the existing Anahita social applications: Groups, Discussions, Projects, and Photos.

    The Tachyon template provides a custom layout with a 2,6,4 ratio by default which is required by the Anahita. This feature activates automatically when the Tachyon template detects the Anahita framework on the system.

    We have a promotion

    If you are a RocketTheme.com member we are giving away 100$ off on the first 100 people who sign up as Premium Tribe members with Anahitapolis.com

      How do you use Rocket Launcher or at least include the database with Rocket Launcher when you are using Anahita?

    • Rastin Mehr 3:03 pm on February 16, 2011 Permalink

      @william Anahita is a stand alone solution available as a distro. The RT Rocket launcher does not include any Anahita technology.

    Anahita Social Networking Engine ™ Alpha3 is now available to the tribe of partners 

    Almost 100 days after the alpha2 release we now have made the Anahita Social Networking Engine ™ 1.0 alpha 3 codename Red Angelica available to the Anahita tribe of partners. We have also updated Anahitapolis with the most recent code in the trunk including a number of updated social apps: Anahita Social ™ Groups, Discussions, and Photos. That’s right! We are now aiming to have the Beta release ready.

    We usually make the code that is one release behind available for free download, therefore Anahita Social Networking Engine ™ alpha2 code will be made available on our website in a few days for those who enjoy reading code and experimenting.

    What’s New in the 1.0 Alpha3

    During the last 3 months we have updated the Anahita ™ code  to work with Nooku Framework 0.7 revision 2536, rewrote Anahita Social ™ Photos and Discussions to work based on the new Anahita actor node architecture, and started developing two new social applications: Anahita Social ™ Connect and Groups. The latter is currently being used for delivering support and services to the Anahita partners.

      When will Anahita Social Engine Alpha3 be release to public?

    • Rastin Mehr 3:43 pm on November 23, 2010 Permalink

      @Edwin – When Anahita Social Engine ™ 1.0 Beta is available to the partners, the alpha3 is released to the public.

    Officially Out of the realm of the old architecture 

    A while ago we have released the Anahita Social Engine ™ 0.9.4 to the tribe of partners. The new social engine code has been rewritten from ground up based on a Nodes-Graphs-Stories architecture and domain driven design. We are happy to announce that 2 of the main social applications – Anahita Social ™ Photos and Anahita Social ™ Discussions – have also been rewritten based on the new framework and platform and we are now officially done with the old code and looking forward to build all the upcoming extensions and social apps based on the new Anahita Social Engine ™ architecture.

    Anahita Social ™ Photos - Album View

    Our hard work is already paying off. Now it takes way less code to develop social apps and the written code is even more organized and easier to maintain. It is indeed a lot of fun developing social apps using Anahita and Nooku Frameworks!

      Amazing.

      So promissing !

      2010 is getting more and more exciting

    • Gio 3:11 am on May 5, 2010 Permalink

      Awesome!! When we can aspect the 0.9.5 stable release?

    • Rastin Mehr 3:28 am on May 5, 2010 Permalink

      @Marco @Gio thank you gentlemen! Yes that is the goal.

      @Gio – I don’t want to put out a release date, because people will take it as a promise. But soon. 0.9.5 is really about polishing 0.9.4 and having some of the essential social apps in place so we can all launch our social networking projects :)

    • James 2:47 am on May 7, 2010 Permalink

      Super update as always, really looking forward to this 0.9.5 release, promises to really be a powerful piece of kit for the joomla world.

    • Rastin Mehr 2:16 am on May 8, 2010 Permalink

      thank you @James :)

    • Josh 4:14 pm on May 9, 2010 Permalink

      when are we going to get a public beta????

    • Peter Armenti 5:25 pm on May 9, 2010 Permalink

      in what time period do you guess that the actual release of anahita will be? At that time what license will it be? Open GPL? I don’t know if I’m reading out of date information on stuff from ’07 ’08 – has your overall direction changed since then?

    • Rastin Mehr 1:33 am on May 10, 2010 Permalink

      @Josh @Peter I wouldn’t want to put out any actual release data because people by mistake that that as a promise. What I can tell you that it is unlikely that the next release – 0.9.5 – take as long as the 0.9.4 did (4-5 months). That is because we rewrote the 0.9.4 from ground up. For 0.9.5 we are polishing the code and building based on what we have already developed. It is in our interest to have everything ready yesterday! but good software development takes time and patience.

      Anahita Social Engine and all the related extensions and social applications will be distributed under the GPL2 license.

      All Anahita code is “free as free liberty” but NOT everything will be “free as free beer”. We will only be making the Anahita Social Engine framework and platform available for free download. In order to obtain Anahita extensions, social apps, and other service you are required to sign up as one of the paid membership plans. Currently the partners tribe is one option.

      “I don’t know if I’m reading out of date information on stuff from ‘07 ‘08″

      Where are you reading those information from?

      “has your overall direction changed since then?”

      What change are we talking about? Since 5 months ago only the Anahita software architecture has changed, but the overall vision has been the same.

    • Brandon 2:39 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      Hey Anahita team. I want to know when we will be able to launch our own social networks and how can a become more involved in this project.

      Thanks

    • Rastin Mehr 3:13 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      @Brandon – Anahita is in alpha stage. When it is stable you can use it for production websites. If you like to obtain Anahita here is the link

    • Brandon 3:32 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      @Rastin – Ok briliant. I see I have to pay 500$ per year? Is this completly necesary, can I not just sign up and get mailed when there is a stable version.

    • Rastin Mehr 3:40 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      You can follow our announcements on blog and twitter. We will be making the Anahita Social Engine for free download actually, but to receive support and access all the extensions and social apps you need to sign up for a plan.

      There is a demo that you can look at right now with real people on it. If you contact us with your first name, last name, company name and a description of what your project is about and we’ll give you an account on the demo website.

    • Brandon 4:10 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      @Rastin – Ok, I have signed up. I am sorry though for leaving my company name out, I am still thinking of one and then still need to register it. Other wise I have filled out everything correctly, I think. Can’t wait to check it out.

    • Brandon 4:24 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      @Rastin – Is everything correct, for me to see the demo site?

    • Rastin Mehr 4:37 pm on May 19, 2010 Permalink

      @Brandon – yes it is fine :)
