|OX Documents SpellCheck
|Open-Xchange HE / SE v6.22
|With OX App Suite v7.10.4 the OX Documents SpellCheck has been introduced. To use the new service this must be installed, configured and run. All Documents related core modules for Text, Spreadsheet and Presentation rely on this service in order to check spelling for typed words and text contained in opened documents.

It supports collaboration across Middleware nodes but is also mandatory for a small (even single node) environments. For upgrades from earlier versions than 7.10.2 the Hazelcast Cluster requires a complete shutdown, since the internal OX Documents data has changed. A rolling upgrade is not possible. Please note: For OX Documents, Apache version v2.4.10 or newer is required. Further information can be found at: https://oxpedia.org/wiki/index.php?title=AppSuite:Documents_Installation_Guide_7103#Documents_Collaboration_Service

|Open-Xchange rolled out HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) for its web services at open-xchange.com on 2023-06-01. This mechanism will further improve the security of connections and mitigates potential downgrade attacks. It enforces that HTTP clients use HTTPS rather than the unencrypted and unauthenticated version of this protocol. We further intend to use HSTS-preloading, which means clients will use HTTPS straight away and will not attempt to use HTTP.

|Open-Xchange introduced the new OX Drive app v3 for Apple iOS beginning of 2022. This new OX Drive app for Apple iOS, now called "OX Drive by Open-Xchange", is an intelligent file synchronization app for iOS phones and tablets. With this new generation app, Open-Xchange provides a seamless integration into Apple’s app ecosystem and into the system’s own file browser, the Files app. This new OX Drive app replaced the previous OX Drive app v2. We would like to notify you that support for the OX Drive app v2 for Apple iOS will be discontinued from the 3rd of April. With this date, Open-Xchange will remove the app from the Apple App Store. Existing users can continue to use the app but no new users will be able to download it. At the same time Open-Xchange will also stop providing further updates and support it. The new OX Drive app is available at https://apps.apple.com/de/app/ox-drive-by-open-xchange/id1585939206. Existing users of the legacy app can also easily upgrade to the new version by following the "New app available" entry in the navigation panel.

|Up until now Open-Xchange has provided support for installations of OX App Suite 7.10.x on Debian Jessie. OX App Suite v7.10.x requires OpenJDK 8; OpenJDK 8 is a backport on Debian Jessie and Debian Jessie is currently in LTS (Long Term Support). Recently we have found out that the support for this backport in Debian Jessie has now been discontinued. This means that Debian Jessie no longer supports the required OpenJDK 8. Due to the above situation we regrettably have to inform you that support of OX App Suite v7.10.x and any future version on Debian Jessie must be discontinued from the 2019-03-31. Open-Xchange encourages administrators to regularly update to the latest available platform releases. To ensure a stable and up to date environment please note the different versions supported.

Versioning and Numbering of Open-Xchange Products

Abbreviations

The Open-Xchange versioning 2015 will be structured in the following way:

<generation>.<major release>.<minor release> Rev<build number>

Abbreviation Meaning Comparison
<generation> The first number is the product generation number. A new generation may contain new architecture, different technology and many more. OX App Suite 7
<major release> The second version number (major release) indicates significant program changes in terms of added functionality. Major changes to design and enhancements of APIs are possible. All APIs shall be backward compatible, which means, that mainly new functions can be added. If Open-Xchange releases a new major release this will be an even number, unstable interim releases have odd numbers. OX App Suite v7.10
<minor release> The third version number (minor releases) indicates an update with consolidated bug fixes and non-intrusive feature enhancements. APIs and database will not be changed if this can be avoided. All changes must be backward compatible. OX App Suite v7.10.6
<build number> The Rev-number (Revision) shows the progress of the development in single steps OX App Suite v7.10.6-Rev1
Public Patch Release / Patch Release A Public Patch Release enables Open-Xchange to publish a feature together with a patch. This in turn enables Open-Xchange to react more flexibly to time requests for certain features, thus relieving minor releases and making it possible to shift them. Delivering a feature with a Public Patch Release requires:
  • It can be implemented without far-reaching side effects. This is especially true for features that are implemented as plug-ins. To a limited extend, features affecting a limited sub set of core functionality can be included. Technical pragmatism is fine to reach the goal (e.g., copy & paste of functionality instead of abstraction into a service). This pragmatism has to be leveled out though as soon as the feature is ported into a more flexible branch.
  • It can be deactivated and is deactivated by default. If a customer installs a Public Patch Release, the familiar feature set does not change. Only if explicitly activating the enhanced features, will they be available to the end user.
  • If features require changes to the data base schema or configuration files, they have to be developed in such a way that they do not impair the running system.
  • Side-effects of Public Patch Releases are evaluated by the respective developers. Together with the QA team, they make a test plan for checking for those side effects and other effects.

Open-Xchange rolled out HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) for its web services at open-xchange.com on 2023-06-01. This mechanism will further improve the security of connections and mitigates potential downgrade attacks. It enforces that HTTP clients use HTTPS rather than the unencrypted and unauthenticated version of this protocol. We further intend to use HSTS-preloading, which means clients will use HTTPS straight away and will not attempt to use HTTP. 2023-06-01
Open-Xchange introduced the new OX Drive app v3 for Apple iOS beginning of 2022. This new OX Drive app for Apple iOS, now called "OX Drive by Open-Xchange", is an intelligent file synchronization app for iOS phones and tablets.
