SyncEvolution 1.5 released
- 04 November 2014
This version is the new stable, supported version of SyncEvolution. Compared to the last 1.4.99.4 pre-release only minor changes were done (see below). This section summarizes the changes since the last stable release, 1.4.1.
SyncEvolution 1.4.99.4 released
- 15 September 2014
This is the first release candidate for 1.5. No further changes are planned except for fixing yet-to-be-discovered bugs - so find them now! :-)
SyncEvolution 1.4.99.3 released
- 24 July 2014
This release enhances CalDAV/CardDAV and PBAP syncing and fixes some problems. The enhanced conflict handling introduced 1.4.99.2 was unintentionally limited to syncs with EDS on the server side; it is now also available for example in WebDAV<->SyncML bridge setups.
Tizen Dev Conf: PIM in IVI - Contacts, your phone, your car
- 18 June 2014
Here’s a copy of the slides that I presented at the Tizen Developer Conference 2014 in San Francisco. Compared to the previous talk at the Automotive Linux Summit in Edinburgh, you’ll find Tizen-specific instructions for getting started and information about the new OAuth2 (or, as a fallback, password based) Google Contact sync. *[Update]*: a copy of the slides and an audio recording of the talk are now also on the [conference web site](https://www.tizen.org/events/tizen-developer-conference/2014/conference-schedule) (search for “PIM in IVI - Contacts, your phone, your car”).
SyncEvolution 1.4.99.2 released
- 26 May 2014
1.4.99.2 is a new development snapshot. It enhances interoperability with CardDAV servers and in particular Google Contacts considerably. Contact data gets converted to and from the format typically used by CardDAV servers, so now anniversary, spouse, manager, assistant and instant message information are exchanged properly.
SyncEvolution 1.4.1 released
- 14 April 2014
The first bug fix release in the 1.4 series addresses some issues which occurred on some systems. Several issues with Akonadi were fixed.
SyncEvolution 1.4 released
- 18 February 2014
The 1.4 release of SyncEvolution replaces 1.3.2 as the stable, supported release. 1.4 is the first stable version with the in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) PIM Manager included. GENIVI Diagnostic Log and Trace (DLT) is also supported. For more information about this aspect of SyncEvolution, see the PBAP and PIM entries in the [1.3.99 release notes](http://cgit.freedesktop.org/SyncEvolution/syncevolution/tree/NEWS?id=syncevolution-1-3-99-7) and these [Automotive Linux Summit slides](https://syncevolution.org/blogs/pohly/2013/pim-its-all-about-contacts). The biggest change for normal Linux users is Google CalDAV/CardDAV authentication with OAuth2. These are the open protocol that Google currently supports and thus the recommended way of syncing with Google, replacing ActiveSync and SyncML (both no longer available to all Google customers).
SyncEvolution 1.3.99.7 released
- 23 January 2014
This the final release candidate for 1.4. No further changes planned unless new problems are found.
