OBM is a free messaging and collaboration software : email, shared agenda, contacts and more, on your desktop, smartphones and web browsers.

After 10 years of development, it has evolved in its design into an extremely stable and modular architecture, using proven, stable and scalable open source technologies.

An Enterprise-class platform, OBM is well suited for workgroup on organizations with up to hundreds of thousand users. OBM features Groupware, Messaging, CRM, LDAP, Domain management, Smartphones and PDA synchronization…

As of today 19th jan. 2012, OBM 2.4.0 is officially and publicly available for download, installation and production use.

After many months of delay, the remaining blocking issues, coming from legacy code and the whole set of new features we had to integrate (features involving contracts we had to honor), have been resolved.

It's a great day for us, the core team. That means we're back on track for better support, evolutions, and listening to our users.

Our cumulative changelog can be found here : http://obm.org/doku.php?id=changelogs:changelog_2.4

As a bonus, we've refreshed and made public our old user guides (sorry for our non-French speaking users, the docs are only in French language for the moment). You can access the documents from there : http://obm.org/doku.php?id=docs:userguide:fr:obm24 .

Please note that OBM 2.4.0 doesn't support yet Debian Squeeze and CentOS 6, and that Funambol (SyncML) compatibility has been delayed (replaced by a much better ActiveSync support) : these features will be provided soon (they're planned for February-March). If you want to upgrade OBM AND your OS, you'll have to wait another month or so.

Please also note a licence change : we've switched from GPL to “Affero GPL 3 for OBM”. This is basically an AGPL3 with additional terms (allowed by the GPL licence) meant to protect our paternity over the software (you will probably notice a new trademark text in the top right corner of your obm pages).

Hoping to hear from you soon, any feedback will be welcome!

And as we're still in January, I wish you all a very productive and collaborative year!

Best regards,

Lilian Chamontin, OBM
