SolOffice, the Open Source Office Suite / News: Recent posts

SolDeeBee, the database application in the SolOffice suite, is under development at the moment. I think I will probably release it first, and I'm hoping that when I release it, that will generate a little more interest in SolOffice, and perhaps a few coders too...

The current version of SolMail in CVS has been updated with the latest from my SandBox.... Please note that in order to open and run this, you will need Delphi 6 minimum (perhaps D7), and have TToolbar2000 (www.jrsoftware.org), TBX (g32.org), TBXTabSet and extra themes (www.rmklever.com), TRaylightURLLabel (find it on delphi.icm.edu.pl), rmControls (find on delpgi.icm.edu.pl), TurboPower Orpheus (sourceforge.net/projects/tporpheus/), TurboPower (sourceforge.net/projects/tpvplanit/), TScrollingCredits and TRegistryEdit (www.saturnlaboratories.co.za), Indy Client Components (come with D7), JEDI VCL (jvcl.sourceforge.net), JEDI CL (jcl.sourceforge.net), and of course the SolOffice components (you may need to check out the latest version from CVS as well).... read more

The latest version of the components have been released. This is basically what is in CVS, so not all of the components are finished. This is an attempt to get some more active contributors on board. A couple of new components have been added, and a couple of bugfixes have also been done, with minor improvements elsewhere. Have fun!

Here's an update for the SolOffice components. I'll be releasing an official new release of these components soon, so look out for it! I've uploaded a couple of new components too, so check out the stuff in CVS (if you'll excuse the pun)!!

The source code for SolMail, the mail client has been uploaded to CVS. It is largely incomplete, but it shows the envisaged design, as well as the SolOffice components in use. Enjoy!

I have updated the SolOffice components in the CVS repository. These include a new component or two, and another one or two updated components.

This second release is an updated component set, with one new component, and one small change. The new component is a mail account manager, and it loads and saves mail accounts to one accounts file.

The SolOffice project has released the start of its component suite, which will be used in SolOffice. This is a component collection which will grow as SolOffice grows. It includes customised components that SolOffice will be using.

Development of SolOffice has started! We are still in the early stages of development, so currently this mainly involves planning the development.
