[rt-announce] RESEND RT 3.0.5 now available

[Jesse Vincent]

[This message didn't actually make it out to rt-users and rt-devel and
is being resent]

RT 3.0.5 is now available. This release represents almost two months of
work improving cleaning up the core of RT 3.0.  In addition to new and
updated translations, more robust mail handling, new configurable
preferences and enhancements to the internationalization, this release
boasts the first release of RT's new CLI. The CLI is still "beta
quality" but is now included in the distribution. Unlike RT2's CLI, this
tool works remotely using the same web/based application server as the
rest of RT, which means that you can now use RT's cli from anywhere you
can use the web UI!

	Download RT 3.0.5 now from:

	MD5: 62c4840de335cdf2f7ffff093569e3ce  rt-3-0-5.tar.gz


New features in RT 3.0.5 enable the use of RTFM, our knowledge-base
tool, which is freely available at:

	http://bestpractical.com/rtfm/

In addition to the standard search and edit functionality, RTFM lets
you extract ticket replies into new knowledge-base articles and use
knowledge-base articles to reply to tickets.

Both RT and RTFM will be discusses at our upcoming developer training
sessions in Boston on September 26 and in San Francisco on November 7.
We've still got a couple open slots in Boston and plenty of room in SF.
