From p at sys4.de Mon Jul 1 16:56:05 2019 From: p at sys4.de (Patrick Ben Koetter) Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2019 16:56:05 +0200 Subject: amavis release plan Message-ID: <20190701145605.b6isbhbtrhvwzufh@sys4.de> Greetings! It's about time I wrote a mail on the next steps this project will undergo in the near future. = Bug Fix Release We plan to release a new amavis version in about 4 weeks from now. This upcoming release will focus on bug fixes and we plan to merge all outstanding issues adressing bugs. We will also add a new feature: amavis will be able to use rspamd as spam scanner and rspamd will be able to use amavis' content filter framework capabilities. Though this can be already acchieved today with a few hacks, the method we will add will simplify the setup significantly. The code for this has been written and tested and it will be merged within the next weeks and shipped with the upcoming release. = Improvements Release Top on our roadmap for the release, following the one I described above, is to split amavis' code into smaller chunks. This will make live easier for developers. Markus Benning has already started to work on this issue. But it is not an easy one and the tricky part – coming up with something that dynamically loads the apropriate modules depending on the configuration settings – remains to be done yet. This release hopefully will also be the one that introduces documentation for admins/operators. I'm saying "hopefully" because the task has been assigned to me and I'm still searching for that spot from which everything explained seems to "make sense". p at rick -- [*] sys4 AG https://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Schleißheimer Straße 26/MG,80333 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer, Wolfgang Stief Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein From p at sys4.de Sun Jul 28 09:33:18 2019 From: p at sys4.de (Patrick Ben Koetter) Date: Sun, 28 Jul 2019 09:33:18 +0200 Subject: Release of amavis version 2.12.0 Message-ID: <20190728073317.pohyp7nfhndu2d7h@sys4.de> Greetings, I'm pleased to announce the release of amavis version 2.12.0. This release fixes some of the most outstanding bugs and it introduces a new feature to include rspamd as spam scanner into the amavis content filter framework. Take a look at the RELEASE_NOTES for a list of changes. For those on the amavis developer mailing list turn to https://gitlab.com/amavis/amavis/-/tags to download the version tagged "v2.12.0". Once I've figured out how to upload/send the new release to amavis' website I will also notify the amavis user mailing list subscribers. Let me take a moment to thank everyone, who contributed code, concentration and/or time to make this release happen. You did a great job! There will be more work ahead. We plan to release more often in smaller steps to continually improve amavis. So just in case you weren't able to get your hands dirty this time – there will be another chance… ;-) p at rick -- [*] sys4 AG https://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Schleißheimer Straße 26/MG,80333 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer, Wolfgang Stief Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein From abbot at monksofcool.net Sun Jul 28 15:16:54 2019 From: abbot at monksofcool.net (Ralph Seichter) Date: Sun, 28 Jul 2019 15:16:54 +0200 Subject: Release of amavis version 2.12.0 In-Reply-To: <20190728073317.pohyp7nfhndu2d7h@sys4.de> References: <20190728073317.pohyp7nfhndu2d7h@sys4.de> Message-ID: <87wog28fjt.fsf@ra.horus-it.com> * Patrick Ben Koetter: > I'm pleased to announce the release of amavis version 2.12.0. Hear, hear. Personally, I'd like to thank Damian Lukowski and Sven Bartscher for their work reviewing merge requests. Now here's me hoping that the new release will soon be picked up by various Linux distribution maintainers. -Ralph
