1. Security and Bug-fix update EGroupware 1.6.002
Stylite will release a security and bug-fix update, Version 1.6.002, including GPL enhancements on Monday 20th of July 2009.
Regarding to the security issues related to FCK-editor, tracking application and knowledge base, we strongly recommend to update to EGroupware community version 1.6.002 or to Stylite EGroupware Premium Line (EPL 9.1).
EPL 9.1 contents extensive enhancements e.g. in the file manager application, which are not available in EGroupware 1.6.002.
Further information regarding EPL: http://www.stylite.de/EPL
Note: EGroupware hosting customers in the Stylite computing centre (managed EGroupware) are already operated on base of EPL 9.1 with all security updates included.
2. iPhone and EGroupware
Online access to EGroupware's calendar by using iPhone's CalDAV interface (OS 3.0) is now available. We might be able to substitute so far necessary 3rd party products for calendar synchronisation in near future. All desirable CalDAV features are not supported yet as our latest test shows.
Test report:
- http, https (incl. caCert): available
- Create appointments in EGroupware and iPhone: available
- Change of appointments in EGroupware and iPhone: only available as owner
- Edit of appointments: user right informations are currently not handled by CalDAV, but generally possible
- Deletion of appointments in EGroupware and iPhone: only available as owner
- Content of appointments:
* Titel, location
* Start and end date
* Recurrence
* Participants incl. status information:
* Accept / refuse appointment: not available
- Alarms: test are momentarily not completed
- Categories: not available, no interaction with EGroupware
- Other EGroupware Calendars: available, other EGroupware calendars can be set up and shown particularly or merged
The necessary CalDAV-EGroupware enhancements supporting iPhone are part of the current versions 1.6.002 and EPL 9.1
