I have no spare time to build kolab again and again, I have already
build beta 1 & 2
iis it worth it to build rc1 (did anyone build it on RH 8.0 or 9.0)
when will the final release be released ?
Ps. an Admin manual is well worth it, me and my coleagues could also
offer to translate it into Greek is there is a need.
Keep Up the Good Work
