conjoon

We are proud to announce the immediate release of conjoon 0.1.1. This is a maintenance release in the 0.1 series, which includes mainly bug fixes.

Notable changes in conjoon 0.1.1:

• [Ext.ux.Livegrid] brought Ext.ux.Livegrid 0.4.1 into the main dev branch which fixes an issue reported by hflipman (http://www.conjoon.org/forum/showthread.php?346) regarding the loading of selections

• [Reception module - client] fixed a consequence of a possible race condition that could occur if a user sets the workbench into “standby”, then a login with the same user credentials is done on another machine, and the previously locked workbench is unlocked again

• [General] fixed several trailing comma issues that would prevent IE7 from starting the application

• [YoutubePlayer] updated conjoon to use Ext.ux.YoutubePlayer 0.4 which fixes a few issues and introduces functionality to chose from different video resolutions based on the resolutions the currently playing video provides

• [Feeds module - backend] fixed an issue where item facade’s “importAndAddFeedItems()” would not handle an exception other than “Zend_Http_Client_Exception” properly, thus breaking updating other feed items resources if any other exception was thrown

We would like to announce the immediate availability of conjoon 0.1. This release focuses on improving the stability of the conjoon 0.1.x branch. If you have already conjoon 0.1RC3 installed, you won’t need to install this release, since no changes where made to the last release candidate.
In the meantime, we have started to work on the 0.2 branch, which will bring full IMAP and local cache support.

We are proud to announce the third release candidate of conjoon 0.1 (conjoon 0.1RC3). This RC focuses on issues we came across during tests on various systems, and we want to thank Marc Steinert and Johannes Hahn for providing us with detailed bug reports.

You can find the changelog at http://wiki.conjoon.org/browser/tags/release-0.1RC3/CHANGELOG.txt.

Please download and test this release candidate, and report any issues found. A stable release is expected next week. In case of critical issues we will continue producing weekly RCs. Downloads and further information is available at http://www.conjoon.org/downloads. See also the most recent installation/upgrade guide at http://wiki.conjoon.org/wiki/Users/Guide/Installation.

We are proud to announce the second release candidate of conjoon 0.1 (conjoon 0.1RC2). This RC focuses on bug fixes, Ext 3.1 integration and security enhancements, and should be the last candidate for the next stable release.

You can find the changelog at http://wiki.conjoon.org/browser/tags/release-0.1RC2/CHANGELOG.txt.

Please download and test this release candidate, and report any issues found. A stable release is expected next week. In case of critical issues we will continue producing weekly RCs.

conjoon 0.1RC1 - a new fragrance

We are proud to announce the first official release candidate for conjoon 0.1 – namely conjoon 0.1RC1. It features Ext 3.1 and is available from the download page at http://www.conjoon.org/downloads

Thanks to our users for all the testing, and we can’t wait to make this version final to start working on the IMAP release!

We have just released conjoon V0.1RC1P – which is a build-only, preview version for conjoon V0.1RC1. This version has some known bugs regarding the Ext.ux.Livegrid- and Ext.ux.Wiz- user extensions – making the application not work properly in IE7 and IE8.
Until this issues are fixed, you are welcome to check out the new features we have added. We recommend FF and Google Chrome browsers for running this release.

Update:
Several users have encountered some issues when working with conjoon on *nix machines. We have fixed this issues and recommend you to upgrade to the newest version, 0.1RC1Pr935.

Update 2:
We have fixed minor typo issues in r937 – the newest build 0.1RC1Pr937 is available from the downloadpage, as usual.

lighthttpd is a very successful open source web server – a number of large companies already use it for speeding up their Web 2.0 applications. Apparently, it was just a question of time until some users wanted to run conjoon under lighthttpd instead of Apache 2, for which the software was configured. A blog entry on misterfu.de shows you how you can  set up the rewrite rules so that the Zend Framework routing  still works:

url.rewrite-final = (
“.*\.(mp3|swf|js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css)” => “$0″,
“blank\.html” => “$0″,
“^/install/(.*)$” => “$0″,
“^index\/redirect.+$” => “index.php”,
“.$” => “/index.php”
)

conjoon v0.1 is raring to go and it brings a lot of improvements and new features.

Once Ext 3.0 final gets published, we will apply some fine tuning and release V0.1.

Here are some of the key features the new version brings:

* iPhone support
* Twitter client
* automated session manager
* caching
* enhanced workbench with organizable quick panels
* UI improvements
* System Sounds

Needless to say that various bug fixes made it into this release. Around 300 commits to the vcs have been made since the last release.
Here’s a screenshot of the upcoming release:

Just a quick update on the domain transfer conjoon.org/.com: The domains are back up again, the domain conjoon.de will redirect to the .org domain.

Last night the transfer of conjoon.org/.com was started. We are updating the servers due to the popularity the project gained, and we’ll be back with more performant hardware. We are also planning on providing a live demo, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, please use the address www.conjoon.de, which serves as our fallback domain.
