= ANN: SOGo v1.3.17 =

The Inverse Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of SOGo 
1.3.17. This is a minor release of SOGo which focuses on improved stability 
over previous versions.

=== What is SOGo ===

SOGo is a free and modern scalable groupware server. It offers shared 
calendars, address books and emails through your favorite Web browser or by 
using a native client such as Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning.

SOGo is standard-compliant and supports CalDAV, CardDAV, GroupDAV and reuses 
existing IMAP, SMTP and database servers - making the solution easy to deploy 
and interoperable with many applications.

SOGo features :

 * Scalable architecture suitable for deployments from dozen to many thousand 
users
 * Rich Web-based interface that shares the look and feel, the features and the 
data of Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning
 * Improved integration with Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning by using the 
SOGo Connector and the SOGo Integrator
 * Two-way synchronization support with any SyncML-capable devices (BlackBerry, 
Palm, Windows CE, etc.) by using the Funambol SOGo Connector
 * Excellent integration with Apple iCal, Apple iOS and Android-based devices

and many more! SOGo and our connectors are completely free.

=== Changes from the previous release ===

New Features
 * new contextual menu to view the raw content of events, tasks and contacts
 * send and/or receive email notifications when a calendar is modified (new 
domain defaults SOGoNotifyOnPersonalModifications and 
SOGoNotifyOnExternalModifications)
 * added the SOGoSearchMinimumWordLength domain default which controls the 
minimal length required before trigging server-side search operations for 
attendee completion, contact searches, etc. The default value is 2, which means 
search operations are trigged once the 3rd character is typed.

Enhancements
 * updated BrazilianPortuguese, Czech, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish 
(Argentina), Spanish (Spain) translations
 * all addresses from a contact are displayed in the Web interface (no longer 
limited to one additional address)
 * improved Sieve script: vacation message is now sent after evaluating the 
mail filters
 * updated CKEditor to version 3.6.4

Bug Fixes
 * fixed a crash when multiple mail headers of the same type were encountered
 * fixed logrotate script for Debian
 * fixed linking of libcurl on Ubuntu 12.04
 * fixed parsing of timezones when importing .ics files
 * fixed resource reservation for recurring events
 * fixed display of text attachments in messages
 * fixed contextual menu on newly created address books
 * fixed missing sender in mail notifications to removed attendees
 * improved invitations handling in iCal

New extensions for Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1 and 10 ESR have also been generated.
