I uploaded a new version of sunbird to my archives. Actually, its some 0.3 alpha preview release, if you want to have a name. I took a cvs snapshot on Sep 17, 2005 for that purpose.

First, the good news:
I am uploading sunbird to my stable archive in a move to honour the good amount of work done by sunbird developers and the progress made in general usability and stability of sunbird. Read the blog entry http://www.babylonsounds.com/2005/09/sunbirdcalendar-progress-report.html to get some detailed infos on what has been achieved in recent history.

For those not willing to read the full story here the most important points:

improved localization capabilities
various improvements and fixes for the handling of recurring events
improved task handling with lots of bug fixes
improved multi calendar handling

Second, some bad news:
When will this release go into the debian archive? I can’t tell. I guess I have to find a free logo for sunbird first. So contributions or ideas for a good alternative are welcome.

For now, I uploaded sunbird to my stable archive only. As soon as I get to it, I will build it for sid too. That package will go into my experimental archives. My apt lines for all repositories are available from http://www.asoftsite.org/apt-archives.html.

Any plan for Ubuntu, like uploading this to universe ?

Typically I have no time to do ubuntus work … anyway, maybe you can tell me how this all would work? Just uploading? Where to?
