FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 17, 1998. ClearWay Technologies today announced the release of two new
free plug-ins for WebSTAR-compatible Web servers: “ClearWay Simple Cache
Manager 2.0” and “FireSite SSI_PIXO Adapter 1.0”. Both plug-ins are
available immediately at no cost, as a service to the Mac Webmaster
community.
ClearWay Simple Cache Manager 2.0
On a busy Web server, RAM caching can help performance, but it may also
sometimes result in “stale” files being cached by the server. For over a
year, thousand Webmasters have used ClearWay Simple Cache Manager 1.0 to
help keep the RAM caches “in sync” with the latest Web site changes. Now
CSCM Version 2.0 includes a customizable results page that the Webmaster
can use to publish tips, late breaking news, helpful hyperlinks, or banner
ads. CSCM 2.0 is free and available from (http://www.clearway.com/CSCM/)
FireSite SSI_PIXO Adapter 1.0
Most modern WebSTAR “SSI-style” plug-ins, such as NetCloak and WebCatalog,
support the PIXO standard for high-speed communication between plug-ins.
And while WebSTAR 3.0 includes a popular new “SSI” plug-in, it does not
support the industry-standard PIXO interface, and therefore runs at a
reduced speed when called from FireSite or NetCloak. The “FireSite SSI_PIXO
Adapter” is an independent WebSTAR plug-in that adds a high level of PIXO
support to WebSTAR SSI, allowing it to perform at top speed through the
PIXO interface. The FireSite SSI_PIXO Adapter is free and available from
