Greetings:
Finally GroupServer 0.9 is out. The release isn't polished. It might not
even install (but we hope it does)!
http://groupserver.org/news?id=59 (follow for download links)
There are many changes (hundreds probably) in this release, these are
some of the highlights:
---
General Changes:
* Zope 2.9 now required
* Zope side installation simplified with an 'installer' product
* Numerous small changes, tidyups and fixes
* A user manual (for users, not administrators)
UI Changes:
* We have icons! (with thanks to the Tango project!)
* Atom feeds more prominent
* A completely new (and currently quite basic) files area, based
around search
* Email posting forms supressed for users who are blocked
(or over their posting limit)
* Completely reworked 'homepage' for logged in users
* Better search
* Many, many, many changes to overall UI
Email:
* Option to moderate new users
* Post from web much faster

We encourage those who are brave to download this release and let us know
about any problems. We do not offer any backward compatibility between this
and earlier releases, though Michael JasonSmith of onlinegroups.net has
done a preliminary migration guide. I'm sure he'll post the link in due
course :)
This release also coincides with my birthday. Yay for me.
Happy (Bug) Hunting,
Richard.
