0.2.93 is out and both the Build Service and rPath have the latest release. To quote Lord Moo:
From my last "outstanding" list for 0.3, Hawkeye has been mostly
addressed (small bugs remain, though), and no-one has sent me any
Dragonfly nominations so that's probably not going to change too much.
One huge change in this release is that we've changed how mail/etc. is
stored on-disk to a maildir-type format. This is a big change this late
in the process, and one I'm not totally happy about. The reasoning for
this is because certain IMAP clients were causing extreme load on our
mbox system which was virtually impossible to relieve. By 0.3, though,
we will have reached the on-disk format which will remain for 1.0.
A new application in this release is the backup/restore tool. It does
need a little bit more testing, and there are probably still bugs, but
enables admins to backup/restore individual mail stores with all the
meta-data we associate with files.
As always you can check out the Release Notes and install with a click on openSUSE
