In case you want a groupware solution added to opensuse, you might as well
look at kolab http://www.kolab.org/ and http://wiki.kolab.org with its ;
opensuse page is at http://en.opensuse.org/Kolab Just this week kolab-2.1.0 ;
has been released.
Kolab uses only open source applications, it is very scalable each service
could be run on a seperate system (BTW: this is the power of kolab it can
support literally (10?) thousands of users). It's secure, it has a healty
and friendly community. Further more the developers are working very hard
together with the horde project to make horde the webinterface to kolab:
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Horde Once this is finished one has a very ;
nice groupware solution: kolab as server, a webinterface and fat clients like
kontact, thunderbird and Outlook.
