Hello folks,
We're proud to finally announce the release of version 0.8 with the brand new skin, codename "Larry", becoming the new default UI for Roundcube. After two preview releases and a lot of fine-tuning, the new design by http://bueroflint.com has now grown up. But to all the nostalgics out there: don't worry! The old skin still remains part of the package and will be maintained for at least one more major release.
Beside the new UI, this version also contains more bugfixes and mprovements (see ) as well as some code refactorings. Another major change since the last stable release is the updated license which is now GPL v3+ with exceptions for skin & plugins. Read more about that on http://roundcube.net/license
After lots of testing and collecting your feedback, this version is considered stable and we recommend to update all productive installations of Roundcube. Get the new version from http://roundcube.net/download
Finally, some important notes for sysadmins to deploy the new Roundcube:
- The new skin brings an entirely new look to the webmail application.
Please carefully plan a roll-out of the new version and prepare your users accordingly.
- We're getting a lot of support requests from users who are under the
impression that Roundcube is a public service such as Gmail or Hotmail. Unfortunately we cannot help these people and thus we'd like to encourage everybody to do some branding on your Roundcube installation. You can replace the logo by config (option 'skin_logo') and even more important: the new release now has an option named 'support_url' where everyone should fill in an URL to instructions how to get help for that specific installation of Roundcube.
And last but not least: our recent partnership with the Kolab Groupware project is finally showing some results. The Kolab team just published a preview release of their all-new Kolab 3.0 groupware suite including Roundcube as the new web client. Enriched with nice new plugins, Roundcube gives easy access to all relevant groupware functions. Read more about Kolab at http://kolab.org/blog/grote/2012/08/07/alpha-kolab-3.0-and-roundcube-0.8-rel...
That's definitely worth celebrating, cheers!
