[evolution-kolab-devel] Version 0.30.0 released



Hi everyone.

The evolution-kolab team gladly announces the availability of version 0.30.0
of the evolution-kolab plugin for the Evolution PIM suite.

The major improvements over our previous release (Version 0.2.1) include overall
speedup fixes to most operations as well as a good number of memory leak
fixes and internal rework to improve on the user experience. No new functionality
has been added. The version number 0.30.0 documents that this is our first true
release for GNOME 2.30.

Source code, user manual and some supplemental files can be found on the 
project's website, located at SourceForge:

        http://evolution-kolab.sourceforge.net/

Since the release still targets GNOME 2.30, we have the following 
requirements for evolution-kolab (see the website for more details):

* Evolution 2.30.3
* Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" (building for Debian 6.0 Squeeze works, but
  there are no packages as yet)
* Kolab server 2.2.4 or higher (Server version 2.3.x also works well,
  as should any Kolab 2 server)
* for further details check out the project website

Everyone interested is welcome to try and test the plugin. Feedback is welcome,
either in form of postings to the project's SF mailing list, or by adding issues
to the project's SF bugtracker.

There are several resources worthwhile to consider when trying the evolution-
kolab plugin. The user manual available from the website can serve to get 
everything up and running, and there is a Wiki page on which we documented the 
most common issues a user of evolution-kolab may run into (follow the "Known 
Bugs" link on the project website). Many - if not all - of the Evolution issues 
listed there may be specific to v2.30.3 and might already be resolved in 
recent versions of Evolution. Also, check out the project's "Files" section, 
it has some more material (some of it is available in German only - we found 
automated translation services to be of some value here). A whole lot of data 
conversion issues are outlined on another project Wiki page. Follow the "PIM 
data conversion issues" link on the project website.

Pre-packaged builds of evolution-kolab are available for Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid" 
for i386 and amd64 architectures. We have set up a rudimentary package 
repository to ease the installation process.

The evolution-kolab team is looking forward to receiving your feedback on our
latest release!

Kind regards,

        Christian
