{{Note box| SME Server 9.1<br>This is likely to be based on CentOS 6.6 maybe during summer 2014}}
** From Charie on Devinfo 
+
 
** Please everybody, go and have a look at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojolicious Mojolicious]. It's what I strongly recommend for new UI developments. Very, very well maintained and tested.
+
* Webmail
 +
** Webmail is Core
 +
** For SME Server 9.1 Horde 5.x is the default for core. See [[bugzilla:6653|Bug 6653]]
 +
 
 +
* Partial Samba 4 support
 +
** What can be achieved in the next 3 months?
 +
** See See [[bugzilla:8075|Bug 8075]]
 +
 
 +
* Minor improvements to Backup - Restore (Ian)
 +
** My improvements to Backup Restore did not make the 9.0 development freeze.
 +

{{Note box| SME Server 10.0<br>This is likely to be based on CentOS 7.0}}
    +
* Full Samba 4 support(David Harper)
 +
** Investigate the implications for the SME ecosystem of moving to Samba 4 (e.g. currently UNIX accounts are used for authentication but for Samba 4 all auth would have to be done through Active Directory - e.g. IMAP, webmail, VPN etc.)
 +
** Would likely require BIND 9 instead of dnsmasq
   −
* Webmail (Ian)
+
* Webmail
** Decide if webmail is Core or Contrib  - I vote for Core (mrjhb3) - If you don't want these comments here, then please delete.
+
** Choose the webmail solution that will be in the core for SME Server 10. Alternatives will be contribs.
** Investigate the webmail solutions available, and features such as activesync  (Horde 5.1 is supposed to support MS EAS 14.1, 5.2 adds some additional features - mrjhb3)
  −
** Decide which webmail should be in core, if any

*** Zarafa oh yé [[User:Stephdl|Stephdl]] ([[User talk:Stephdl|talk]])
*** Horde 5.x - would make the most sense as a direct upgrade to 8.x and has free sync to Outlook via Funambol (David Harper) I have this working, so after 9 is released, the community can decide if we stay on this path for 9.x.  (mrjhb3)

*** eGroupware It will be my choice --[[User:Larieu|Larieu]] ([[User talk:Larieu|talk]]) 03:35, 6 February 2013 (MST) - I think this is a good starting point to compare [http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reviews/7289/1 compare]
