The Inverse Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of SOGo 
2.0.4. This is a minor release of SOGo which focuses on improved stability over 
previous versions.

=== What is SOGo ===

SOGo is a free and modern scalable groupware server. It offers shared 
calendars, address books and emails through your favorite Web browser or by 
using a native client such as Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning, Apple Calendar 
and Address Book (OSX and iOS) and Microsoft Outlook.

SOGo is standard-compliant and supports CalDAV, CardDAV, GroupDAV and reuses 
existing IMAP, SMTP and database servers - making the solution easy to deploy 
and interoperable with many applications.

SOGo features :

 * Scalable architecture suitable for deployments from dozen to many thousand 
users
 * Rich Web-based interface that shares the look and feel, the features and the 
data of Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning
 * Improved integration with Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning by using the 
SOGo Connector and the SOGo Integrator
 * Native compatibility for Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007 and 2010
 * Two-way synchronization support with any SyncML-capable devices (BlackBerry, 
Palm, Windows CE, etc.) by using the Funambol SOGo Connector
 * Excellent native integration with Apple software (OSX and iOS) and 
Android-based devices

and many more! SOGo and our connectors are completely free.


=== Changes from the previous release ===
