Available as a free download, the beta version of Novell GroupWise offers customers and partners a single integrated solution that combines traditional e-mail and calendaring functionality in a personal dashboard with team collaboration workspaces and new Web 2.0 resources, such as wikis, blogs and RSS feeds.
