Two for the price of one! With little fanfare on our lists, yesterday was actually Bongo's first birthday. As a small act of celebration, I put out 0.2.92 so people could test the current version which had a lot of bug-fixes over the last release.
As is sometimes the case, the act of release triggered a little run of bug-fixes, particularly to the web administration, so since I hadn't announced the release yesterday properly, I've rolled another release and this is now the third test release: Notes: http://www.bongo-project.org/Releases/0.3.0 Tarball: http://download.gna.org/bongo/release/bongo-0.2.93.tar.bz2 SHA1 sum: e60c62e36c9833f6e48f3bed6de32ad1f87edc51 >From my last "outstanding" list for 0.3, Hawkeye has been mostly addressed (small bugs remain, though), and no-one has sent me any Dragonfly nominations so that's probably not going to change too much. One huge change in this release is that we've changed how mail/etc. is stored on-disk to a maildir-type format. This is a big change this late in the process, and one I'm not totally happy about. The reasoning for this is because certain IMAP clients were causing extreme load on our mbox system which was virtually impossible to relieve. By 0.3, though, we will have reached the on-disk format which will remain for 1.0. A new application in this release is the backup/restore tool. It does need a little bit more testing, and there are probably still bugs, but enables admins to backup/restore individual mail stores with all the meta-data we associate with files. I'm intending that the next release will be the first 0.3 release candidate: that is, if no-one finds any serious bugs in it, it will be blessed as 0.3. We've got some more testing and fixing to do, but hopefully this won't take too long and the RC will arrive later this week or early next. Cheers, Alex. _______________________________________________ Bongo-users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/bongo-users
