[announce] Nag H3 (2.2-ALPHA)

[Jan Schneider]

The Horde Team is pleased to announce the first alpha release of the Nag Task
List Manager version H3 (2.2).

Nag is a web-based application built upon the Horde Application Framework which
provides a simple, clean interface for managing online task lists (i.e., TODO
lists).  It also includes strong integration with the other Horde applications
and offers shared task lists.

This is a preview version that should not be used on production systems. This
version is considered feature complete but a few bugs may still exist in the
code.

We encourage widespread testing and feedback via the mailing lists or our bug
tracking system.  Updated translations are very welcome, though some strings
might still change before the final release.

Nag version H3 (2.2) is a major upgrade in the 2.x release series, including
these enhancements:
    * Support for the Horde_Alarm system (requires Horde 3.2) for email or
      inline alarms on any event.
    * Support for sub-tasks and tasks with delayed start dates.
    * WCAG 1.0 Priority 2/Section 508 accessibility guidelines compliance.
    * Improved vCalendar and iCalendar support.
    * Support for private tasks.
    * Dynamic inline searching of the task list, with the option for an
      advanced search that includes additional options.
    * All tasklists are now shown in a collapsible panel with easy access to
      managing your tasklists and choosing which tasks to view.
    * Completion of tasks is now tracked in a completion date field and in
      the Horde_History system.
    * Full Kolab webclient support
    * Database access can be split between read and write databases.
    * More graceful operation if the calendar backend is not available.
    * and much, much more.
