If our edition is hosted on libx.org, are we able to get any information
on the number of downloads?

Is there any way to modify the webpage for my edition so that it does
indicate that the IE version of the toolbar is available?  There is a
paragraph toward the end that says it is only available for FireFox.

Are there any hints available on the future direction of LibX?  I would like
to see more support for proxy using EZproxy.  It would be abig help if
proxying a  catalog was a required option so that the proxy string was added
to the beginning of the catalog URL.  I have added it manualy to all of the
"catalog" searches I added for different databases.

Yes. A good summary is contained in this talk:

http://libx.org/presentations/LibXBaileyBack-Access2008.pptx

In preparation for LibX 2.0, we're currently rewriting the LibX core
(if you're CVS savvy, check out the libxrestructuring branch).

Somebody already filed this RFE (Bug #36).

It does place a burden on your users, though (since proxy accesses are
substantially slower than regular accesses) and is generally not
necessary, but we'll probably add it in the future nevertheless.

You can create your own home page for your edition like many libraries have.

That said, the boiler plate page will be updated shortly to link to
your IE build as well.

The crash that occurred when using Outlook Web has been addressed (and 
we're not aware of any other problems pertaining to MS products).  We 
haven't looked into the keyboard language issue, but we will (though 
please file a bug report for that at <http://libx.org/bugzilla> so we 
can keep track of your bug request).

Is there any way to modify the webpage for my edition so that it does
indicate that the IE version of the toolbar is available?  There is a
paragraph toward the end that says it is only available for FireFox.

Are there any hints available on the future direction of LibX?  I would
like
to see more support for proxy using EZproxy.  It would be abig help if
proxying a  catalog was a required option so that the proxy string was
added
to the beginning of the catalog URL.  I have added it manualy to all of
the
"catalog" searches I added for different databases.

Yes. A good summary is contained in this talk:

http://libx.org/presentations/LibXBaileyBack-Access2008.pptx

In preparation for LibX 2.0, we're currently rewriting the LibX core
(if you're CVS savvy, check out the libxrestructuring branch).

Somebody already filed this RFE (Bug #36).

It does place a burden on your users, though (since proxy accesses are
substantially slower than regular accesses) and is generally not
necessary, but we'll probably add it in the future nevertheless.

You can create your own home page for your edition like many libraries
have.

That said, the boiler plate page will be updated shortly to link to
your IE build as well.

Arif is preparing a 1.0 release candidate that addresses one last
major outstanding issue - the ability to install for all users in a
multi-user Windows environment.

The crash that occurred when using Outlook Web has been addressed (and 
we're not aware of any other problems pertaining to MS products).  We 
haven't looked into the keyboard language issue, but we will (though 
please file a bug report for that at <http://libx.org/bugzilla> so we 
can keep track of your bug request).

I guess you didn't file it in the bugzilla database (which was 
introduced about 7 months ago), or at least I couldn't find a bug with 
that particular description there.

In any case, I'll take a look at it and see what I can do to resolve it.

In the mean time, could you describe exactly what other MS applications 
are affected and what happens when you're using them?

Thanks,
