eGroupWare is a free enterprise ready groupware software for your network. It enables you to manage contacts, appointments, todos and many more for your whole business.
eGroupWare is a groupware server. It comes with a native web-interface which allowes to access your data from any platform all over the planet. Moreover you also have the choice to access the eGroupWare server with your favorite groupware client (Kontact, Evolution, Outlook) and also with your mobile or PDA via SyncML.
eGroupWare is international. At the time, it supports more than 25 languages including rtl support.
eGroupWare is platform independent. The server runs on Linux, Mac, Windows and many more other operating systems. On the client side, all you need is a internetbrowser such as Firefox, Konqueror, Internet Explorer and many more.
UPDATE: the first 1.4.004 packages contained two bugs:
- felamimail gave an error "no egw_simple toolbar set"
- the spellchecker / aspell did not work (it need to be configured and enabled in Admin >> Site configuration)
The 1.4.004-2 tar.bz2, tar.gz and zip packages and the 1.4.005-15 rpm packages are fixing the above errors.
==> WE RECOMMEND EVERYONE UPDATES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!
The update includes all previous 1.4 updates and requires no schema update (if you upgrade within the 1.4 release).
The fixed security problems are grave, if you have directories writable by the webserver in you docroot (in most windows server the complete docroot writable by default, but many linux servers are also set up that way).
The new version 2.6 of FCKeditor supports now newer Safari and Opera browsers, see http://www.fckeditor.net
Please note: as FCK contains many static javascript and css files, you and your users might have to delete the browser cache after the update!
tar.bz2, tar.gz and zip files are downloadable from sf.net
fixed security problem reported by lukasz.pilorz@allegro.pl

many bugfixes since 1.4.001/2
a complete list of the changes is available via the changelog
Download Tar and Zip packages from sourceforge.net. Please note that notification, importexport and SyncML require php5.1, while the rest of eGW 1.4 requires only php4.3! Please remember you always need the additional egroupware-pear package!
Rpm's for SuSE, Fedora & Mandriva are available via the egroupware repository at SuSE build service:
There are now also repository files (*.repo), which can be used for Yast or Yum to make the eGroupWare repository available to your package management.
This update had to be produced on very short notice, as the original mail to security@egroupware.org was bounced, by the mail infrastructure operated by the former project member Lars Kneschke. The project has no control over it and the egroupware.org domain, which is owned by the Lars Kneschke. In spite of his public statement that the egroupware.org domain belongs to the project, he has not transferred the domain to the eGroupWare project. He was contacted multiple times and was sent a transfer form, he only need to sign.
We ask everyone to politely contact Lars Kneschke (l.kneschke@metaways.de) and the Tine project to help convincing them to transfer the egroupware.org domain to the eGroupWare project.
If we can't get control over the domain or it get switched off or to a different website, we have to switch the eGroupWare infrastructure to www.egroupware-server.org

Admin statement regarding eGroupWare and Tine split
Submitted by Miles Lott on 2008/02/26 - 13:35
Since Tine has now violated the press clause in the admin statement from December at least twice, we have decided to take action in response. This was done after private discussion with Lars and Conny:
1. From now on, Tine is no longer part of the eGroupware project. They have 1 week from today to copy their svn contents elsewhere.
2. The two eGroupWare developers and project members Lars Kneschke and Cornelius Weiss are hereby expelled from the project due to their repeated acts against the project. They have been warned and appear to have no remorse nor respect for the rules of the project.
