The excitement continues

Dear subscribers We're just a couple of days away from finishing our Roundcube Next crowd funding and the good news is: we already reached our base goal! That means Roundcube Next will get started and we can refactor the core of Roundcube and get basic email and contacts functionality in place. But that's just the start. If we can push the funding higher, then we can schedule more of the Roundcube Next goals as seen in the graphic on the campaign page. Without that extra support, it will simply take us longer to get there. Visit https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/roundcube-next--2#/story and get involved if you haven't already. Also on the campaign page: some sneak peeks on the visual concepts we've been working on in the past few weeks. The screens are far from being final or complete but you'll the the idea what the new webmail may look like on desktops and mobiles. So there's still time for you to make a difference. Back the campaign today and help us push even further! Best, Thomas and the Roundcube Team

Updates 1.1.2 and 1.0.6 released
by Thomas Bruederli 06 Jun '15

06 Jun '15

Dear Roundcube users We just published updates to both stable versions 1.0 and 1.1 after fixing many minor bugs and adding some security improvements to the 1.1 release branch. Version 1.0.6 comes with cherry-picked fixes from the more recent version to ensure proper long term support especially in regards of security and compatibility. The security-related fixes in particular are: - XSS vulnerability in _mbox argument - security improvement in contact photo handling - potential info disclosure from temp directory See the full changelog here: http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Changelog Both versions are considered stable and we recommend to update all productive installations of Roundcube with either of these versions. Download them from https://roundcube.net/download As usual, don't forget to backup your data before updating. And there's one more thing: Our crowdfunding campaign for Roundcube Next is still ongoing and has just been updated with more details of what we want to achieve. We'd much appreciate your support for this exciting new project. Please visit https://roundcu.be/next and spread the word about it.

Roundcube Next is coming and we need your help!
by Thomas Bruederli 06 May '15

06 May '15

Dear subscribers What started with the hypothetical question, "how would we implement Roundcube if we could start over again?" [1], has now grown into a concrete plan how to create the responsive, fast and beautiful successor of Roundcube. It has become clear that the architectural changes necessary for this are way too big to be applied to the current Roundcube codebase without breaking the compatibility in a major way. That's why we're planning to define Roundcube One as feature complete and focus on a new core engine for the future Roundcube webmail application. In order to make than happen, we can reply on long time partners who supported Roundcube already in the past. Kolab Systems has offered to drive this project by contributing their well established software development capabilities and dedicate additional developer power to help us get the work done. In addition to that, the folks from Kolab Digital in London are going to share their expertise on the UX and design part of it. Two major goals are important to us: Besides improving the core technology and modernizing the UI, we also aim to move some of the groupware features we currently see in the Kolab suite into Roundcube itself and make them available for other backends. And we'll certainly provide a migration path to existing Roundcube installations. So to enable us to achieve these high stake goals together for Roundcube Next we proudly announce our crowdfunding campaign at Indiegogo. Go to https://roundcu.be/next and back us if you can or help us spread the word about it. Your websites, blogs and social media channels can help us reach more people. Or if you're working for, or are a customer of, an ISP who's already using Roundcube, please forward this campaign to your product manager. Let's challenge today's email and create the most awesome webmail application people deserve to communicate freely using systems and services they can trust. The next Roundcube will of course again be 100% open source and made available to everybody. This is your chance to contribute to the success of free software. Many thanks to all of our past, current and future supporters! Sincerely, The Roundcube Dev Team [1] https://roundcubeinbox.wordpress.com/2014/09/12/roundcube-next-if-we-would-…

Roundcube Webmail 1.1.0 released
by Thomas Bruederli 10 Feb '15

10 Feb '15

Dear subscribers We’re proud to announce the arrival of the next major version 1.1.0 of Roundcube webmail which is now available for download. With this milestone we introduce new features since version 1.0 as well as some clean-up with the 3rd party libraries: - Allow searching across multiple folders - Improved support for screen readers and assistive technology using WCAG 2.0 andWAI ARIA standards - Update to TinyMCE 4.1 to support images in HTML signatures (copy & paste) - Added namespace filter and folder searching in folder manager - New config option to disable UI elements/actions - Stronger password encryption using OpenSSL - Support for the IMAP SPECIAL-USE extension - Support for Oracle as database backend - Manage 3rd party libs with Composer In addition to that, we added some new features to improve protection against possible but yet unknown CSRF attacks - thanks to the help of Kolab Systems who supplied the concept and development resources for this. Although the new security features are yet experimental and disabled by default, our wiki describes how to enable the Secure URLs [1] and give it a try. And of course, this new version also includes all patches for reported CSRF and XSS vulnerabilities previously released in the 1.0.x series. IMPORTANT: with the 1.1.x series, we drop support for PHP < 5.3.7 and Internet Explorer < 9. IE7/IE8 support can be restored by enabling the ‘legacy_browser’ plugin which is part of the default package. See the complete changelog at http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Changelog and download the new packages from http://roundcube.net/download. The download packages come in two flavors: "dependent", which requires the manual installation of 3rd party libs using Composer and "complete", with all the required libraries already packed into the vendor directory and ready to run. Best, Thomas [1] http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Howto_Config/Secure_URLs
