This is the final release of OpenGoo version 1.6. Following are the new features in this release,
Archive objects and workspaces
When you no longer need an object or workspace you can archive it to remove it from your every day views, while its still searchable and accessible via the “Archived Objects” workspace.
Mark as read/unread for all types of objects
Until now the read/unread functionality was available only for emails. Now it is also available for all other types of content objects. If an object was modified since your last view it will be marked in bold for you to quickly notice that it has changes. Once you view the object it will be marked as read.
