Hi Alinto Team,
I wanted to ask if it is already known if or when there will be a new
version of the Thunderbird add-on "SOGo Connector" for Thunderbird 102?

Hello
Our plans are to support as much as possible the full solution.
And to answer to your question yes SOGo will remain open source.
Having said this we are still in a transition phase where Inverse
will support the product until end of August 2022 so please allow us
some time to proceed with the transition
In the next week the build system, Github repository will be moved as
well as the mailing list and the BTS
Thanks for your understanding
Philippe
Hi Philippe,
Thank you for stepping in, that clears the sky for now :-)
It is really good to hear that you are actively busy with the
transition, hopefully things will go smoothly.

In stead of us speculating about what to expect from Alinto, it
would be helpful if the team of Alinto that takes over the Sogo code
would join the list and express their plans.
It is only a few months until Alinto takes over and I have not seen
much about from their side yet. There is just the EOL message from
Inverse and a pretty brief statement on Alinto's website. It leaves
me with a lot of questions on how Sogo will be developed in the
future and if it remains to be open source at all? And indeed what
will happen to side products as the Sogo-connector...? Is it time to
fork the code or should we start to look for a different solution
and make a migration plan?
Alinto, please join this list, help to provide answers and take part
in the discussions!

I'm not working for Alinto, the company which takes over
maintenance of SOGo. However, I've talked to a sales
representative some months ago as we were inquiring for a support
license, and they told me that they are relocating the development
of SOGo (server) to France, and would continue development. We
didn't talk about the sogo-connector specifically though. Do you
have specific indications that they will stop development of
sogo-connector? It would be a pity, especially because TB is
getting a major overhaul since about 2 years.
No. No specific indications. However their product is:
"SOGomail by Alinto"
Powerful business-class mail Server for organisations that are
looking for a proven European alternative.
And I don't see any indication that they will support Thunderbird.
Come to that support from Inverse was not really enthusiastic in
the last release.
As mentioned our best bet is to work to get most of this into TB
itself or a lightweight addon.
Regards
Christian
