Packages that would make my professional life just a little bit easier.

  1. Zimbra: PHPgroupware and OpenGroupWare don’t cut it. Zimbra — I’ve seen a functioning system! — is nice, and has risen almost to the point of competing with MS Exchange. It would be simply wonderful to be able to apt-get this sucker.
  2. OpenBravo: Such an impressive piece of software. One of the few OS ERP projects with a nice website, a nice interface, and a lot of great features.
  3. VMWare Server: It was in the repos, then it disappeared. I have exactly two programs I need Windows to run, and I’d like to host one of our ageing Win 2000 servers as a virtual machine running in an actually stable environment.
  4. Bugzilla: Okay, this one is in the repos, but I simply can’t set it up properly. Maybe it’s just me.
  5. ERP5: Apparently pretty powerful, I bet there’re quite a few people who’d want to give this a whirl.

    6. That’s it for now. But I will be back with more…
