There are a lot of changes in this release. Most of them are under the hood and involve restructuring as well as polishing. Many tiny fixes and improvements to the file handling also went in. All in all a release with a lot of small improvements.
As this is the first beta version be well prepared to have a bumpy start with it, but in general it should work quite good. We already did some tests on real instances and they looked promising. Nevertheless this is a beta release
We also added it to the updater server in the beta channel. This time it will not show up to all users by default, because we enabled this only for ~20% of the update requests. It’s just to prevent a lot of people run into the same problem.
Current circles from the appstore does not work with this beta yet (we will work to fix this)
Since we changed some layouts elements not all apps display correctly (we are also working on this to fix it)
Since we also did a lot of UI work regressions (or obvious) bugs in that direction are also very welcome to be submitted, if possible try to include screenshots of the issues
@JimmyKater we’ll probably do that for Beta2, I’ve had a look at a daily build the day before Beta 1 was packaged and my feeling is we’d run out of t-shirts fast
Nothing super critical but there are loads of small thingies to fix, perhaps instead we should offer t-shirts for every PR that fixes one
what do you think of this idea instead:
small bugs - t-shirt size “s”
medium bugs - size “m”
large ones - size “l”
prs - size “x(xxxxx)l”
giggle
but to be a bit (just a bit, only) more serious: i think i was wrong and you offerend a shirt for every found bug in release-candidates… so that would be fair, i guess
do not use in production. will destroy your maschine forever.
use a new installed ubuntu16/18 in a virtual box.
maybe centos7 and/or debian 9 is also working. raspi doesn’t. I couldn’t find php7.2 packages for raspi.
if $(hostname -f) is not the real fqdn of the server replace it with the real one.
if running on the internet and have a working dns setup you can use something like the following: -e "ssl_certificate_type=letsencrypt" -e "fqdn=your.domain.com" -e "cert_email=your@email.com"
Just updated to this version, did some simple functionality tests and all seems ok.
I wanted to mentioned that I run into a small issue while updating using the web GUI, which I reported here.
Someone tried the new groupware features? It’s possible to invite people to events in calendar and so on. First problem i noticed: Invitee can confirm the calendar event but the event owner gets no information about that confirmation.
But in general. I really like that groupware integration. Also the resourcebooking is great although it needs a lot of polishing.
. Even if it is integrated with NC14, it makes sense to close the gap for 13 -> 14 updates.
