Hi
I have searched the mailing lists and it would seem quite funny, if it
could.
Do You all mean it?
We use EGroupWare 1.2.106 on daily basis, with Debian Etch and even
Debian Sarge, and we see it as vastly superior release, compared to 1.2.105.
Needless to say, that new stable version is arising, 1.4, so that in
upstream, the 1.2 will be for sure just bugfixed and security
maintained, if either. The upstream autors don't have resources to do more.
I have always be using the upstream version, however I appreciate the
Debian packages, despite of their archaism. They allowed me to install
the EGroupWare quite simply, with all dependencies, and then just move
to upstream.
I don't think that abandoning EGroupWare entirely for Etch is good idea.
I also don't think that including the upstream version is bad idea.
The old, inferior and barely maintained upstream PHPGroupware resides
there, and the superior ancestor -the EgroupWare -is being kicked out
just because of far-from-perfect development model of Debian.
Please reconsider.

Package: egroupware
Severity: wishlist
The egroupware has a new upstream version 1.2.106 that already takes
place in unstable.
Could it make it into stable? We use it on daily basis and the version
seems better than 1.2.105. Since the development of 1.4 is finishing,
the 1.2 series already is in "freeze" status with no new functions
added, just backported bugfixes.. I think it is pretty much stable though.
Such issues are not package bugs but matters of release team policy. Refer to
the recent discussion about the egroupware package there.
