   I was going to start trying it as soon as the Glow 0.2 client was out 
which was slated for mid-August.  Here's what the folks over at 
news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.groupware.user had to say 
about it.

"Glow 0.2 is still in development; we recently got a patch for
the Contacts backend, we need to integrate this and
build the UI for it.

We also have a patch for accessing OpenGroupware.org
from Glow, but it also needs the Contacts feature
to work fully.

I will be on vacation now (finally!) for two weeks, so this
will push back our release date also but we aim
to integrate all of these features and release 0.2
by end October.

It's worth experimenting with OGo and Glow now to get
a feel for both, but 0.2 will include a lot of exciting
features (the target date has sufferred a bit from feature creep,
but this makes it all the more worth the wait)."

   I know it's also be used by some as a drop-in replacement for the 
groupware part of SuSE's OpenExchange Server to avoid the licensing cost 
of the default groupware product.
