OpenGoo 1.0 is out!
After nearly two years of work in this project, we are proud to announce the release of OpenGoo 1.0.
Since version 0.9.X we have added very few features and focused mainly in removing the largest quantity of bugs. We aimed for system robustness and we have achieved our goals in this matter. Of course there are lots of pending issues, and -as strange as it may seem- we really hope these issues keep appearing. Finding bugs means OpenGoo is evolving, changing, suffering constant revision and renovation. And we like this.
So what’s next? Our next big step is formalization and professionalization. We have ended the beta stage, where nearly everything is admitted, and have the desire to move forward. Lately, we have been working to improve OpenGoo development process, in order to achieve better planning. The final goal is to be more predictable both for users and for system administrators.
We have other new challenges: help and documentation are the biggest. We are confident that we have a great product, but it will never be complete without a manual … and this absence is stopping new users and developers to join us.
So please stay tuned, and expect more news from the team!

Google Apps, OpenGoo, and the Future of Office Software
Two interesting pieces of news this week have gotten me thinking about the future of office productivity software for nonprofits. First, Google has just added voice and video chat to its email service. Second, a new open-source Web application called Open

I like a time-based schedule, just like Ubuntu has :). Maybe half a year a major release and each month maintenance releases.
