[Kolab-devel] Missing version tags in git, missing releases, missing release notes

[Daniel Morlock]

Hi,

you might want to check the Open Suse Build Service i.e.
https://obs01.kolabsys.com/project/show?project=Kolab%3A3.1%3AUpdates.
This is not really convenient, but at the *.spec files have a least a
version number in it:
https://obs01.kolabsys.com/package/view_file?expand=1&file=kolab-freebusy.spec&package=kolab-freebusy&project=Kolab%3A3.1%3AUpdates
.

This is what I do to keep up to date.

Daniel.
