new pre-release of SOGo

[Wolfgang Sourdeau]

Hi everyone,


Inverse team is happy to announce the pre-release snapshot 
0.9-20070427 of
Scalable OpenGroupware.org (alias "SOGo"). We are continuously working 
on the project and much more is to come very soon!

[What has changed since the last announcement?]
- complete refactoring of the ACL system, which makes it more
fine-grained and able to transpose Exchange acls to SOGo
- a lot of bugfixes in both the Objective-C and JavaScript code

[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....
