Development Release

A collaborative website for projects and project management; WebCollab is easy to use, and encourages users to work together. The software aims to be functionally elegant and secure without being cumbersome or graphically intensive.
WebCollab uses a MySQL/PostgreSQL database backend coupled with PHP scripting and the Apache webserver.
We have released a development version of WebCollab some weeks ago, and intended to follow it up with a full release soon after. The development release has proven to be generally stable, but in the intervening period we have found a number of other internationalisation issues that are taking time to resolve.

Email: The email code in WebCollab works well for English language, and most of the time with other languages with high ASCII characters. This reliability was dependent on the robustness of the recieiving mail server. The email code has now been extensively rewritten to be RFC 1652, 2045, 2047 and 2821 compliant and therefore more tolerant of differing SMTP servers.

Internationalisation: The structure of the internationalisation strings has not been optimal for all languages (other than English). Following comments from translators, they have substantially altered to accommodate these concerns.

The new code is now being checked and tested - which will probably take some time before being released as version 1.50.

Bug reports and feedback on the development release 1.49 would also be welcomed.
