a)
I think the best way would be to create migration scripts.
I don't know OGo that much so I think Helge Hess would be able to
answer that question better than me...
b)
OGo has a few more modules. I think there is a module for document
management that SOGo has not. I can answer the question the other way
around: SOGo has support for calendar, contacts management and emails.
c)
A lot of work is still happening but most of the features are there.
What we are doing for the moment is enhancing the features that are
already presents, by adding missing functionalities or fixing bugs.
However it is perfectly useable already.
Regarding stability, it is very stable in general. There are a couple
of issues with memory management which I still have to figure out but
it works pretty much as expected.
For example, this week I plan to complete the support for ACLS so that
users from MS Exchange and Oracle Calendar can be migrated to SOGo and
fix some JS-related issues in SOGoMail. After that, the remaining
steps before releasing SOGo 1.0 will be to fix the remaining minor
bugs.
Please also note that we have made a snapshot available last week and
that we will provide a new one in a few days. So you can build it and
test it yourself and see if it suits your needs. The installation
instructions should be available soon as well. However do not hesitate
to ask for help.
