We are continuously working on the project and much more is to come very soon! [What has changed since the last announcement?] A complete rewrite of the LDAP layer so that address book and user authentication is centralized. The user entries in iCalendars can now be identified with their email addresses and their user id and full name can be deduced. The LDAP-related settings have been simplified. The mails composed from an addressbook entry now take the card's full name into account in their destination fields. In the mail module, the "from" dropdown list suggests all the available user identities and take the user's full name into account too when composing messages. [What is SOGo?] SOGo is a flavour of OGo that was redesigned for scalability while keeping the basic and fundamental functionalities of a groupware server. It can be used both as a web application with a user interface which integrates well with the Mozilla application suite, or as a GroupDAV and CalDAV server which you can then access from your native client application of choice. Inverse groupe conseil has been working on it for nearly one year and has added many enhancements and features: - Fresh AJAX-based user interface which mimics the Thunderbird / Lighthing / Sunbird look and feel - Calendar and address book sharing - Exchange and Oracle Calendar-compatible ACLs - Tasks support and vCard storage support for contacts - Multiple address books and LDAP-based address books - CalDAV support [Where can I download it?] SOGo is free software and is distributed under the GNU GPL. As such, you are free to download and try it the way you see fit and from the following locations.... The mentionned snapshot is available here: http://www.inverse.ca/uploads/SOGo/SOGo-20070509.tar.gz ... but SOGo is also available with SVN from here: http://svn.opengroupware.org/SOGo/inverse/trunk/ [Website] Inverse has setup a website for SOGo along with its other projects, with screenshots and videos: http://www.inverse.ca/contributions/sogo.html From this website you can also find information about the Inverse Lightning Enhancer and for the GroupDAV plugins for Thunderbird/Lightning.

Well, as mentioned before Scalable OGo is definitely not a shrink wrapped product. If you want that, try OGo, or even better Instant- OGo for the least possible hassle.

We are continuously working on the project and much more is to come very soon! [What has changed since the last announcement?] - Many bugs introduced with the recent LDAP code refactoring have been fixed. Notably, users would not authenticate correctly after a few minutes because of the user cache. - It is now possible again to authenticate with an indirect bind by specifying the "bindFields" parameter in the user defaults. - The concept of default user roles has been implemented. Making it easier to users to configure their repositories and to configure calendars for rooms, projectors or other resources... - The acl system has been extended to support the IMAP acls. - Work has begun for supporting well known non-free web browsers.

When I copy and paste the ./configure line it executes and > stops at Instead of configuring GNUstep, you should use pre-packaged versions instead. Pre-compiled packages exist for most distributions: Debian (and Ubuntu), SUSE, Redhat... Installing those packages will keep you from struggling against incompatibilities and will make it easier for you to build projects such as SOPE and SOGo directly. For Ubuntu, you should install libgnustep-base-dev and gnustep-make as well as their dependencies. Once this is done, you will need to do a "source /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh" and build SOPE and SOGo. Trust me, this will reduce the pain :). Wolfgang
