Unfortunately after a nice release back in Feb the project is looking like it's dead in the water.
What makes you say that? The changelog seems to suggest activity.
http://trac.roundcube.net/trac.cgi/wiki/Changelog

The forums were down for a month while CVS up and disappeared. Looks like they were transitioning to SVN which makes me feel better, but almost five months without a release doesn't thrill me especially when there are so many things that could be worked on.

I'm not _immensely_ fussed about releases if I can get an up-to-date version from SVN in the meantime. If a developer has to choose a priority between bug-fixing & releases I can sympathise with a choice to fix bugs or add features.

The changelog isn't very impressive either IMHO. I'd rather see features like global address books being worked on rather than what I interpret to be mostly cosmetic changes. YMMV.

You obviously have hands-on experience with RoundCube, which I don't. How are addressbooks implemented at the moment? I would prefer to see then access an LDAP directory.

Stroller.
