I just upgraded to 8.6.0 from 8.0.8 on Saturday. I noticed that the web interface look and feel did not change much, but when I changed themes to another and then back I noticed more of a change. It looks cleaner. Two things that were noticed by my end users:
1) "Show BCC" when composing moved. It is now in the "options" menu when composing.
2) When you paste a URL into the compose window it does not seem like it is creating a link for you but when you examine the message in the "sent" folder it indeed does create a link.
Also during my testing I ran into this bug even on patch 3.
After the upgrade we ran into this bug
A patch (p4) is supposed to be coming out at the end of this month. It addresses this issue.
Test your custom zimlets thoroughly. Some of our custom zimlets seemed to have been working fine initially after the upgrade, but because I did not test them thoroughly the end users discovered that they broke.
ZCS 8.7 is scheduled to come out mid September. Holding off may be worth while.

Hello,
We are still using ZCS 8.0.x for Zimbra. I was wondering if most people out there are using 8.5 now? Also if anybody upgraded from 8 to 8.5, did anyone's user community experience any drastic changes with the web interface?
