SME8.0 Contribs QA
Version 8.0 Contrib testing
This document lists Contribs that have had been tested running under SME 8
Executive Summary
Contribs should work if they are perl or php based. Some binary application will work as well.
Test guidelines
Considerations_before_installing advises that Contribs for SME 8 have not yet been released, this is to avoid dev workload diagnosing bugs caused by contribs.
Please don't post sme 8 bugs unless you can replicate the bug with the contrib removed or isolated.

Workarounds
Contribs that sort of work, but need improvement
smeserver-dansguardian
Dansguardian works with very limited testing in transparent proxy mode, ie it block sites
squid.conf has changed from 2.5 to 2.6, the other auth types may have to be checked
dansguardian would very likely benefit from rebuilding on a .el5 base
