Hi List,

I would like to discuss with you the libmapi-0.8 ROMULUS roadmap. I've
written a preliminary (non-definitive) roadmap below and would really
like to hear from you! If you have been waiting for a specific feature
for a while, if you have in mind a client-side improvement you'd like to
see in openchange, feel free to reply to this email.

If some features are unclear, moreover not listed yet on
trac.openchange.org, and you feel they deserve a better explanation so
you can fully understand their scope, let us know.

Compared to libmapi-0.7 which had initially been designed as an update
release and finally turned into "major release", libmapi-0.8 initially
intends to be a major one. 

An approximate time frame for this release would be around 3 months.
However there is often a gap between developers expectations and how the
"real world" works ;-). It will, as usual, depends on how much time and
human resources we can invest into openchange for the next months and
obviously how difficult are the technical challenges behind these
features. We can come with a new release in less than 3 months or it may
take longer (higher probability) ;-)


[0x1] new features:
===================
        * complete notification support
        * free/busy support

        * codepage/method selection in mapiprofile
        * complete mapitest suite implementation

[0x3] libocpf:

        * attachment support
        * remaining property types support
        * ignore property list
        * OCPF meeting request sample file
        
        
[0x4] Tools:

        * mailbox backup/migration tool implementation
        * add GUI for some openchange tools

Cheers,
Julien.
