OBM community

From one week, i make rpm repository to test all trunk OBM's components, this repository is available at:

http://packages.obm.org/rpm/daily is updated each night.

Remender: there is also debian daily repository at "deb http://deb.obm.org/daily obm obm"

From few weeks some OBM 2.3.0rc has been released, to make tests, fix some bugs. Soon, the first stable version of OBM 2.3 will be released, and we hope that this release will give satisfaction to all people who use OBM.

More of new release , now we think how improve relation between OBM core developers and community, how improve the OBM's Community.

OBM like many other opensource project is sponsored by a Company. Is very difficult for us to make big community around OBM. This is a problem of each opensource project made by a company.

So we are open to all suggestion to improve this.

Do you need tools to contribute? ( forum, an other mailling list,...)

Do you want more docs? what are the subjects of the documentation you want? give me example...

obm team news

Hi,

i wrote a mail on OBM mailinglist to announce new debian repository. One people (Tim Verhoeven) reply that he would like see rpm trunk repository also.

Since few month, we try to distribute more and more OBM and OBM components trough obm wiki, obm planet and blogs. New debian repository is a step on this, we also publish all GPL sources on svn.obm.org.

obm, minig, packaging and the future

OBM 2.2.4 is out. I published debian and rpm package on obm.org.
After a discussion with thomas, we must create new package to install more easly standalone minig version. Currently we have minig-conf, mini-frontend and minig-backend, it must add minig-obm which will include just jar to activate minig-obm capabilities. Many people wouldlike use minig without obm and one of the goal of thomas is this. But there are also many people we must use Dovecot or othe imap server, this is'nt tested. Furthermore Tom recently add vacation script and other filter on minig. This feature use sieve script and we must have a meet about this because some sieve feature require cyrus 2.3, and i don't know if dovecot support sieve script.

So, once i have some time i will create minig-obm to cut minig and minig integration in OBM

2.2.1 is out, minig integration

new release is out: 2.2.1 with minig integration. You can test this with debian packages or rpm packgages.

OBM 2.1.16-1 deb package is out

New version of old stable is out, please see the changelog on obm.org. 2.1.16 fix some bug on UI and sync server.

connector up and down

of course OBM connector up and down was an april fool..
Perhaps,one day, this will be reality...
