Yesterday the horde project released alpha versions of Horde Framework 4 and the Groupware apps (Notes, Calendar, Email, Filter,Address Book, Tasks)

I did a test drive and they basically work. IMP has been improved a lot and now integrates the mobile and ajax interface versions which came as separate apps in Horde 3. DIMP (Ajax version) now plays more nicely together with classic non-Ajax horde applications.

I will begin distribution packaging for SUSE Linux around the official release on April 05, 2011.
