Roundcube got another new release candidate. This updated version has a lot of improvements and fixed bugs. HTML message composition is also included but by disabled by default because it’s still experimental.
I wonder how long it will be before we see a proper regular release. For more than a year it has been nothing but beta and RC’s. The product is stable enough to be used in a production environment and has enough features to be able to use it daily. I wonder what is keeping it from releasing it properly.
To update roundcube, if you’ve used the DIYMacServer provided installation instructions, and if you are upgrading from RC1 are:
Extract the RC2 archive into '/Library/WebServer/Documents'. Create new copies of the configuration files and edit them to reflect the same settings as in the RC1 installation. T
Remove the original ’roundcubemail’ symbolic link and create a new one:
Nothing more to do ! If you have an older version it’s necessary to recreate the database because it has changed. Just do a ‘drop databasename’ and run the sql scripts as explained in the installation documentation.

If you have an older version, I think you might want to backup the database instead of just dropping it. I have some clients that have used the contacts and such. If I dropped the database, I believe they would lose this data. I’ll have to check the structure of the new database to see if there is an easy way to reimport this data after doing a dump. If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate it.
