About 90% of the PKGs are available for 5207R and 5208R. This includes:

- NewLinQ
- WebApp Installer
- PHP-5.3.29
- PHP-5.4.31
- PHP-5.5.15
- All Web Applications (including RoundCube)
- AWStats 7.4 (finished yesterday)

What's still missing is this:

- OpenWebmail (will be finished today)
- Automated Backup (will be finished over the weekend)
- Updated APF with DFIX2 integration instead of BFD
- AV-SPAM

The AV-SPAM will probably be ready within 7-10 days, so gimme until the
end of this month to get that sorted.

It will take this long, because I won't just "tack" the new GUI on top
of it. Instead it'll be completely redone from scratch. Some
constructors and handlers of the AV-SPAM actually go back to the year
2000 and have changed only on an "as needed" basis in the years since then.

While there is nothing wrong with the code and it's still as functional
now as it was back then: I really want to take this opportunity to draw
on the vast experience gained in between and make it a lot smoother,
more lean and easier to maintain.

The new BlueOnyx GUI also was done with the AV-SPAM integration in mind,
which will greatly simplify the process and will make the end result
more functional.
