details
Known Issues:
1) The multi-lingual GroupWise client had a build issue with some of the language resource files. Therefore, the multi-lingual GroupWise client will display some English. Development is making a new mulit-lingual build that will be available early next week (week of June 4-8, 2007) This does not affect the GroupWise English only client. Our multi-lingual customers may want to wait until this is released before applying the hot patch.
2) In WebAccess when selecting a user from the Address Book, the To: field will appear blank. Development is aware of this issue and is working towards a resolution.
