[announce] Chora 2.0-ALPHA

[Jan Schneider]

The Horde Team is pleased to announce the first alpha release of the Chora
Repository Viewer version 2.0.

Chora is built upon the Horde Application Framework and provides a read-only
browser interface to any number of version control repositories.  Advanced
features include a visual branch view of the repository's history,
pretty-printed output, annotation, patchsets and basic statistics.

This is a preview version that should not be used on production
systems.  Some small parts are missing and there are still a few bugs,
some of which are listed below.  You should not use this preview
version over existing production data.

The API, configuration items, or features may change before the final
release, but we encourage widespread testing and feedback via the mailing
lists or our bug tracking system. Translations are not ready to be updated
yet, since some strings will change before the final release.

The major changes compared to the Chora 1.x versions are:
    * Subversion support
    * Patchset information
    * Cvsgraph integration
    * Simple commit statistics

Known issues:
    * Documentation is not completely updated yet.
    * Subversion: access to old revisions of cp'ed and mv'ed files does
      not work.
