Hi all,

I've just uploaded the first snapshot release of Kolab Server 2.1.
You'll find it in the new server/development-2.1 directory.

There are some rough edges still, so this is not a beta release yet.  An
upgrade from 2.0 is not recommended at this stage.  However, starting
with a new installation works and we would like get some feedback.

As usual the release notes are below.

Release notes Kolab2 Server
(Version 20050811, Kolab Server pre 2.1)

This is a development snapshot of the kolab server leading up to a 2.1
release.  At this point an upgrade from 2.0 is not recommended (one of
the problems is Issue875)

For upgrading and installation instructions, please refer to the
1st.README file in the source directory.


Known Bugs:

      Issue875 (domain is "$mydomain" after upgrade to 2.1)
      Issue873 (.../maintainer.php was not found on this server)


Changes since 2.0 final:

    - Simple multi-domain support

      The Kolab server can now accept mail for multiple email domains.
      There is also a new class of maintainers which are only allowed to
      manage settings for a subset of the mail domains of the kolab
      server.

    - Switch to OpenPKG 2.4.  As a result of this, practically all
      packages have been updated.

      Up to now the Kolab server used OpenPKG 2.2.  The current release
      of OpenPKG is 2.4, though, and the OpenPKG project only provides
      security advisories and updates for the most recent release and
      its immediate predecessor.  Therefore moving to OpenPKG 2.4 is
      necessary to benefit from the OpenPKG updates.

      The db package has not been updated to the version from OpenPKG
      2.4 yet to avoid potential stability problems with OpenLDAP.

    - A new clamav package fixing a buffer overflow. 
      This is the package mentioned in the kolab security advisory 02
      http://kolab.org/security/kolab-vendor-notice-02.txt

    - better deletion handling.  Now more objects are deleted using
      kolabDeleteFlag (issues 845 and 855)

    - perl-kolab 5.8.5-20050530 -> 5.8.7-20050728

      Uses autoperl now

      * Fixing:
          Issue855 (make shared folder and external deletion same as users)

    - kolab-resource-handlers 20050615 -> 20050719

      * Fixing:
          Issue825 (Errorhandling for multiple recipients)


    - kolabd 1.9.4-20050615 -> 2.0.0-20050729

      * Fixing:
          Issue824 (Enable delivery to multiple recipients)
          Issue851 (kolabquotawarn uses system sendmail)
          Issue791 (automatic invitation handling uses http instead of https)
          Issue845 (groupOfNames cleanup handling)
          Issue855 (make shared folder and external deletion same as users)


    - kolab-webadmin 20050620 -> 20050724

      * Fixing:
          Issue820 (dist list lookup error)
          Issue845 (groupOfNames cleanup handling)
          Issue855 (make shared folder and external deletion same as users)
