Thread: Open Groupware
Hi all, I just stumbled upon open groupware, http://opengroupware.org/ and it looks like they bet huge on postgresql. Are we covering them actively for upcoming releases and other tuning enhancements? Just making sure we don't leave them out. Bye Shridhar
As far as i could see this runs only under postgresql. I also think this groupware ist the best Open Source produkt for business use as an office server. Cause ist can be used with outlook and evolution. I'm now setting this thing up for persoinal uses and it's real good Ewald Shridhar Daithankar wrote: > Hi all, > > I just stumbled upon open groupware, http://opengroupware.org/ and it > looks like they bet huge on postgresql. > > Are we covering them actively for upcoming releases and other tuning > enhancements?

But as far as I see, the outlook connector for both the products are not open source. So you might have to pay for it before you test. Or you can switch to mozilla as defacto standard in your office. That should be rather simpler..:-) Shridhar

You want to invite them to forward their announcements to announce@postgresql.org? Major releases only, of course. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

What kind of measure to do want to apply to control who should forward announcements to our announcement list? I can name half a dozen other projects that support PostgreSQL no more no less than this package, but ISTM that people who want to find out about packages that work with PostgreSQL should go to our website (there is/used to be(?) a page that covers this), and people who want to track the project progress can subscribe to their announcement lists. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net
IMHO, if a posting goes to announce, and is for an OSS project that revolves around PostgreSQL (and isn't the fifth minor release that week), I generally let her through ... its not a high traffic list right now as it is ... if its a commercial project/software, then major releases is about it ...

That > should be rather simpler..:-) Mozilla doesn't give you near the abilities that a groupware/outlook/evolution system gives you. For a business, especially people in sales or customer service, Mozilla just doesn't cut it. I use Mozilla daily but my salesmen hate it.

We should promote as many announcements around PostgreSQL as reasonably possible. The more traffic to that list, the more word of mouth is generated. We should also be posting to prweb for the weekly news.

If a project uses and relies on postgresql solely, I think we should cover it and mention them on our website. May be a software section for software that entirely use or prefer postgresql. Cross linking is always good. Let's moderate it and that's about it.. What say? Shridhar P.S. Sorry for late reply. Was on vacation for last 4 days..:-)
