Great job guys!!
This is turning out te be some bada** Citrix killer. Spending about 10x more money to get the same or even less usability is going to be very hard to justify with 2X around!
Any idea about when this is going to be a production release?

Just a couple of questions:
- Am i right in assuming we don't need Acrobat Reader anymore for the Universal Printing option, if using EMF? So i don't need anything installed on the client side except for the AppServer client?
- How does the e-mail redirection work? I don't really get this, but it seems like something i'd want to use :-)
- Does the WebPortal support (LDAP/AD) authentication?

Thanks!

both emf and bmp printing do not require any 3rd party software to be installed... and the result is even better.

Linux Client

When are we going to see some changes in the Linux client?? It's still in the version 4 period. That's like 19th century in computer terms. It's still kinda buggy and very limited in features. I would really like to see a similar looking client in linux as there is in windows....

Also, copy and paste would be nice (stable of course)
 
Release date

Hi Nixu,

Do you have a releasedate for V6
I need the new universal printerfunctionality + all other nice things :)

or do you think that this beta is so stable that it is possible to take it in a production environment

I second this question... Are you going to update the linux client??
This is progressively more important because the end clients are increasingly moving to open source due to MS licensing prices.
