The public BETA is scheduled for the end of August. In preparation for Public BETA, Novell US is rolling out Bonsai internally to several hundred users, geographies and languages. There are also a few BETA sites who have already rolled into production part or all of their organisation and there is a Lighthouse program that is being used to gather even further real world and production environments as part of the preparation for final FCS (First Customer Ship).
New features include:
Windows Client Enhancements: The Windows client now lets you choose either OpenOffice or Microsoft Word as your editor when composing messages, and provides auto-save protection against message loss. Panels can be configured to display Web pages and RSS feeds. Improved Calendar features include accepting items into any calendar, publishing calendars on the Web, subscribing to calendars on the Web, and busy searching Internet users. Improved Contact features include business card format, a contacts index with lettered tabs, multiple Contacts folders, and contact photos. Improved Tasklist features include subtasks, percent complete, date complete, and task sorting.
Linux/Mac Enhancements: The Linux/Mac client has added many features including the Home Folder, the Navigation Bar, more flexible panels, toolbar customization, categories, improved find/filter capabilities, item personalization, item type modification, multiple calendars, calendar selection for appointment acceptance, shared calendars, updated calendar views, import/export calendars, print calendars, date/time format modification, CASA login support, auto-save protection against message loss, external accounts (POP, IMAP, and NNTP), and Notify.
WebAccess Client Enhancements: The WebAccess client now provides a scrollable message list, auto-save protection against message loss, name completion, HTML Compose mode, improved spell checking, graphical Calendar with multiple-calendar support, drag-and-drop appointments, Calendar colors, Contact Management with a contact summary, e-mail history, and notes, and keyboard shortcuts such as Ctrl+A to select all items and Del to delete items.
Administration Enhancements: GroupWise administrators benefit from a new GroupWise Installation program that streamlines creation of a basic GroupWise system (administration, domain, post office, and agents) and that provides for saving installation options so that installations can be repeated without interaction. The GroupWise snap-ins to ConsoleOne® have been improved to provide more currently appropriate agent settings defaults, more efficient addressing for external Internet domains, a significantly larger maximum mailbox size, the ability to set the default MIME encoding character set, and the ability to customize the Training and Tutorials URL. The options file for GroupWise Check now uses the same XML format across NetWare®, Linux, and Windows so that the same options file can be used on any platform.
Agent Enhancements: The new Calendar Publishing Host and the enhanced POA provide support for the calendar publishing features in the Windows client. The Internet Agent provides more flexibility for blocking rule-generated messages, e-mail notifications for messages that are delayed before being sent out across the Internet, and more complete status and configuration information on the Internet Agent Web console.
