Feed format changed to RSS 2.0
During some work on my website, I seem to accidentally have changed the news feed content a bit, which caused all my old news entries to appear as new stories on Planet PHP. more...
Vacation Auto-Responding Manager version H3 (3.0) released
Vacation is a Horde module for managing user e-mail "vacation notices" or "auto-responders." It works via a local vacation program and the .forward style forwarding mechanism supported by several popular mailers.
Right now, Vacation provides fairly complete support for managing .forward style vacation notices on Sendmail or Courier mail based systems via an FTP transport. It also has some support for LDAP, Qmail, and Exim SQL based servers. more...

Simple WSDL browser
I wasn't able to find a simple and free (as in free beer) WSDL browser. Searching with Google turned into hundreds of results, but these were either .NET applications (and I didn't play with Mono yet and need this for my Linux machine), or commercial, or no longer existant. So I wrote my own one in 40 lines (including HTML and pretty formatting). more...

IMP H3 (4.1.1) and Kronolith H3 (2.1.1) released
New versions of IMP and Kronolith have been released, with a few bug fixes and some interesting improvements. Kronolith has received some improvements in the free/busy code and meeting planning.
More interesting are the additions to IMP especially the long requested feature of a preferred character set for reading emails, which is important for every mail user of the non-ascii hemisphere. Lots of mailers, especially newsletter systems and poorly coded mail clients, send non-ascii messages without specifying the used charset in the message header (or mime part). These messages have been displayed broken in IMP, because RFCs say that such messages have to be considered as ASCII messages, but converting them from ASCII to UTF-8 (the charset we usually use in the Horde user interfaces) doesn't work. Users can now set a preference in IMP to no longer assume that these messages are ASCII, but in the preferred character set of their region instead, for example Western European, or Japanese. more...
Public servers online again
We had some issues with the server that hosted our public services during the last few days. A harddrive crashed and we haven't been able to get the server up again for several reasons. No data was lost, but www.horde.org, ftp.horde.org and anoncvs.horde.org were unavailable during this time. more...
