The Board of Directors of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: ORRF) announced today that Kenneth R. Shoemaker has informed the Board of his intention to retire from the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of the company and Orrstown Bank following the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders. After retiring as President and CEO, Mr. Shoemaker will continue to serve as a Director of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. and be employed as President Emeritus of the Bank for a three-year term. He will also assume the position of President of the Orrstown Bank Foundation.

Shoemaker, age 61, has been President and CEO of Orrstown Bank since June, 1987 and of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. since its formation in May, 1988. Under his leadership, the Company has grown into a very successful regional bank with total assets of $915,000,000 as of March 31, 2008. The bank now operates twenty offices located throughout Cumberland, Franklin, and Perry Counties in Pennsylvania and Washington County Maryland. The bank has been consistently recognized as one of the top performing financial institutions in the state of Pennsylvania.

Commenting on the announcement Shoemaker stated, "It has been a great ride over the past twenty one years and I am extremely proud of the success that our bank has achieved. I have given this issue careful thought and consideration over the past few years and I know the time is right for me personally and professionally. After leaving the position of President and CEO, I will look forward to continuing to serve the bank in a new capacity."

Over the next few months the Directors will form a search committee with representation from both the Board and management. An open search process is expected to begin this fall so that the next President is identified before the Annual Meeting in 2009. The search committee will consider both internal and external candidates.

With over $915 million in assets, Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. and its subsidiary, Orrstown Bank, provide a full range of consumer and business financial services through twenty banking offices located in Cumberland, Franklin and Perry Counties of Pennsylvania and Washington County, Maryland.

Announcing New 64-Bit dtSearch(R) Developer Products - Zibb.com

dtSearch Corp., a leading supplier of enterprise and developer text retrieval software, today announced extensions to its 64-bit developer product line. The 64-bit developer products provide full API access to dtSearch's terabyte indexing and search capabilities, including over two dozen search options. The developer products also provide 64-bit API access to dtSearch's proprietary file format and database support, with hit highlighting in all supported file types, and WYSIWYG hit-highlighted display of popular web-ready formats. Additionally, the products offer 64-bit access to dtSearch's remote data spidering, covering static and dynamically-generated data on public and secure sites, with the same hit-highlighted display capabilities.

Product line overview.

Terabyte indexer; file parser/converters. The new developer products, as well as all other dtSearch products, can index over a terabyte of text in a single index. They can also create and simultaneously search an unlimited number of indexes. Indexed search time is typically less than a second, even across terabytes of data.

Along with the terabyte indexer, all dtSearch products generally share the following feature set:

-- Over two dozen indexed, unindexed, full-text and fielded data search options

-- Display of web-ready content (HTML, PDF, XSL/XML, etc.) with highlighted hits and with all images, links and formatting intact

-- Built-in HTML converters for hit-highlighted display of other popular file types (MS Office, OpenOffice and Vista XML Paper Specification (.xps), ZIP, etc.)

-- Database search options, including support for SQL BLOB data (developer products only)

-- Distributed or federated search options, with integrated display of local and remote content

Spider. The new product line also embeds the dtSearch Spider, providing support for:

-- Public sites, secure content HTTPS, password-accessible sites, and forms-based authentication

-- Searching of web-based content to any specified level of horizontal or vertical depth

-- Searching of static content (HTML, PDF, XSL/XML, etc.) and dynamic content (ASP.NET, MS CMS, SharePoint, etc.) with highlighted hits and with all images, links and formatting intact

-- Integrated relevancy-ranking of Spidered and non-Spidered content (all with highlighted hits)

Search options. Full-text and fielded data search options include: fuzziness adjustable from 0 to 10 (to sift through typographical and spelling errors), synonym/concept/thesaurus (through a built-in thesaurus and/or user-defined synonym rings), boolean (and/or/not), phrase, phonic, wildcard, bilateral proximity, directed proximity, stemming, natural language/vector-space relevancy ranking, variable term weighting, positional scoring, field-based relevancy ranking, data classification and filtering objects, numeric range searching, advanced date recognition, forensics search options and Unicode support for hundreds of international languages.

dtSearch Web with Spider. dtSearch Web with Spider quickly publishes a large volume of instantly searchable data to an Internet or Intranet site. The Spider (see features above) can index static and dynamic content on both internal and external web sites.

dtSearch Engine. The dtSearch Engine for Win & .NET and the dtSearch Engine for Linux enable developers to add dtSearch indexing and searching capabilities to their own applications using C++, Java, .NET, or COM. Sample applications now available in 64-bit include a database indexer using ADO.NET, a web spider application using the Spider API, and a new sample demonstrating OpenSearch integration.

Other dtSearch products. dtSearch Desktop with Spider instantly searches files on a PC. dtSearch Network with Spider searches across a network. Both instantly search and display, with highlighted hits, a wide variety of file types, including email messages along with the full text of email attachments. Through the Spider, both applications can also add web content to a local or network search. dtSearch Publish enables users to easily publish instantly searchable document collections or web site content to portable media (CDs, DVDs, external hard drives, etc.).

More information. For more information, or to download fully-functional evaluation versions of any product, please call 1-800-IT-FINDS (or 301/263-0731), email sales@dtsearch.com or visit www.dtsearch.com.

MindTouch Releases Deki Wiki ''Jay Cooke'' v8.05 - Zibb.com

MindTouch today announced the release of MindTouch Deki Wiki "Jay Cooke" v8.05--the latest version of its award-winning open source enterprise collaboration and integration platform. The Deki Wiki v8.05 release was driven in part by the requirements of Mozilla, which selected MindTouch for the upcoming re-launch of their Mozilla Developer Community.

MindTouch Deki Wiki v8.05 continues MindTouch's tradition of bleeding edge technology with innovations in internationalization/localization, search, user management, integrated scripting, automation, mash-ups, user experience and more. Specifically, this new release revolutionizes multilingual content management. Previously, Mozilla managed 16 distinct sites, one for each language. Deki Wiki v8.05 introduces a new polyglot feature that allows Mozilla to host all languages as a single site. Now language can be specified by sections and pages thereby automatically adapting the user interface of Deki Wiki to the appropriate language. Also, users may search across all languages and search results are prioritized by the user's default language. Lastly, Deki Wiki v8.05 supports OpenSearch, which makes integrating search with other applications nearly automatic.

In order to meet the needs of Mozilla's large and open community, v8.05 also includes new sophisticated tools for IP and user banning, transactional page management, the addition of MediaWiki-like talk pages and provides new functionality that matches and exceeds MediaWiki templates. With the addition of more than 100 new functions added to the DekiScript runtime, a built-in scripting language that's point-and-click simple, v8.05 continues to lead as the most powerful platform for connecting enterprise systems, web services, and Web 2.0 applications. Now it's easier than ever to create content, systems automation, dynamic reports, and situational applications.

In MindTouch's continuing effort to lead the market with the absolute best user experience this release includes several improvements that, yet again, raises the bar for the industry. Some of these improvements are: an all new file uploader, improved dialogs and on-the-fly content transforms that allow users to specify selections of text for syntax highlighting, SVG, LaTex, various graphs, and more. Moreover, adding new content transforms is a trivial matter for a site admin and takes only minutes.

MindTouch Deki Wiki is the only platform that delivers polyglot, content transforms, and allows users to connect systems and easily create data mashups, situational apps, and more. And does so with point-and-click ease.

MindTouch's Web Oriented Architecture, feature set, and user experience were reasons cited by Mike Shaver, Mozilla's Chief Evangelist, for having selecting Deki Wiki after an extensive evaluation of vendors. "I'm looking forward to deploying Deki Wiki for the Mozilla Developer Center; especially with the enhancements that the Jay Cooke release brings," said Shaver, "Mozilla believes in the power of the web to bring people together in wonderfully collaborative ways and MindTouch Deki Wiki's extensibility and flexible architecture will allow us bring more of this to our developer community. The opportunity to easily create our own tools and extensions on top of Deki's extensive API is sure to inspire some great improvements from our community."

Vidoop Hires Dream Team Open Source Veterans - Zibb.com

Open-source advocate Chris Messina and software engineer Will Norris join Tulsa-based OpenID and online multifactor authentication provider, Vidoop.

"Messina and Norris are considered thought leaders in their field," says Joel Norvell, President and CEO of Vidoop.

Messina and Norris will continue the work they have been leading with the DiSo Project (http://diso-project.org). DiSo -- distributed social networking applications, is an umbrella development for a group of open source components such as OpenID and XMPP that will lead to the development of user-controlled distributed social networking concepts, portable social networks and user data portability.

"The open protocols that make up DiSo, such as OpenID, are quickly gaining traction across the internet," said Scott Kveton, Vidoop's VP of Open Platforms. "Vidoop will be using these protocols to integrate DiSo functionality into its OpenID provider, myVidoop.com, and will continue to secure these IDs through its unique image based technology."

Chris Messina is known for helping to advance such community efforts as "Spread Firefox", "BarCamp", and open web standards initiatives such as "OpenID", "OAuth" and "Microformats". Will Norris has been active in the realm of identity management working actively with "Shibboleth", "OpenID", and "MicroID". Norris is also the author of the technology that provides OpenID support for Wordpress.
