-All about this Release!!!
-=========================
+All about this Release!
+=======================

 
 

-This is the second release on our way to a new stable series.
-On our way to, that is, this is a development release, which is not
-intended for production servers. We feel that releasing development
-versions will help us making the to-be stable release more stable, and
-restricting the ability to test no longer to people who use CVS.
+This is the first release of our new 1.5.x-series, which is a 
+DEVELOPMENT release. 

 
 

-So download it! Install it, and try to break it! We are hungry for any
-bug report you send. If stumbling over a bug is a true non-option,
-this release is not for you. In that case, download the stable version
-and enjoy that one.
+See the Major Updates section of this file for more.

 
 

-In general, we are planning to regularly release a 1.3.x version until
-it is stable enough to call her 1.4 or 2.0. While I'm at it, one
-comment on version numbers. Our version numbers take the form of A.B.C
- A increases with time, but only very seldomly.
- B if it is even (0, 2, 4 etc), it is a stable release
-   if it is odd (1, 3, 5 etc), it is a development release
- C indicates small changes.
-Which is to say our version numbering system is the same as that of
-the linux kernel. So 1.2.7 is a stable version, and 1.3.1 (this one)
-is a development release.

 
 

-We are excited to bring you the fruits of a very good development
-series. Major rewrites of the back-end and the user interface have
-been happening since the 1.2 series.
-
-
-A note on plugins
-=================
-
-There have been very severe architecture improvements. Lots of plugins
-have not yet been adapted to this. Plugins which are distributed with
-this release (eg. in the same .tar.gz file) may work. Plugins not
-distributed with this plugin most probably WILL NOT WORK.
-
-So if you have ANY problem at all, first try turning off all plugins.
-
-
-A note on PHP 4.2.2
-===================
-
-There are certain issues with PHP 4.2.2 and session handling that have
-not yet been addresses in this release. So this release MAY NOT WORK
-when you use PHP 4.2.2. These issues will be addressed to in
-forthcoming 1.3.x releases.
-
-
-A note on your configuration
-============================
-
-For a whole bunch of reasons, it is MANDATORY that you run conf.pl
-(and then save your configuration) from the config/ directory before
-using this release.
-
-If you have problems with UID support, please do these 2 things:
-
-1) For our comfort and the prosper of SquirrelMail:
-   send a bugreport with this information
-     * IMAP server type + version
-     * Whether you use server-side sorting
-     * Whether you use thread sorting
-     * The value of "sort" (as in conf.pl)
-   bugs can be submitted at: http://www.squirrelmail.org/bugs
-2) For your own pleasure and comfort:
-   turn of UID support in conf.pl, so you can continue to use 1.3.1
-
-
-A note on MIME
+Major updates

 ==============
 
 ==============
 

-In case you stumble over a message of which something goes wrong with
-MIME (it does not display some of its parts all right, etc. etc.),
-please forward the message AS AN ATTACHMENT to
-squirrelmail-devel@lists.sourceforge.net. However, AVOID
-forwarding emails over 20k of size. Please not as well that messages
-which are NOT forwarded AS AN ATTACHMENT are COMPLETEY USELESS for our
-testing purposes.
-
+1.5.0 includes the integration of the delete_move_next plugin, 
+as well as a new "save replies to the same folder as the original"
+option.

-It is not unlikely you will experience some bugs while using this
-development version. Please submit these bugs. Also, please mention

-About our Release Aliases - By Wouter Teepe
-=========================
-
-In the last months we have had our development team enlarged by,
-amongst others, Marc. Marc has been one of the greatest contributors
-to the stable series. After the release of 1.3.0, just 2 days ago, he
-managed to fix many many small bugs that were found. Almost when
-others (including myself) just thought "Huh, another release?" Marc
-was working hard to improve all kind of things. All fixes in this
-release (and possibly new bugs ;-)) are due to his hard work.
-
-Keep up the good work, Marc!
