I know -- and David reminded me -- that I'd said "mid-october" for a new 
KPilot release. Well, NOT. I'm pretty sure it could have been done if I'd 
continued working at the pace I was -- those heady halcyon days when David 
would send me a new .ui file every day, etc. Before my hardware broke. Before 
it turned out that converting conduits is less trivial than the NULL-conduit 
had suggested. Before I noticed that the KNotes conduit sucked.

Anyway, the KDE 3.0 freeze is coming closer. Please check the release 
schedule (somewhere under developer.kde.org) to see if your favorite feature 
<B><FONT SIZE=+15>that can feasibly be implemented</FONT></B> (preferably by 
you) is on the list, and to see if I've left anything out there (like the 
generalized PDB viewer?).

As for the fabled KPilot 4.3.0 release for KDE 2.2, that's still what I'm 
aiming for, and yes, it really should be out Real Soon Now, assuming I can 
curb my enthusiasm for fiddling around with software RAID under freeBSD and 
new hardware and old hardware too (I've got a barcode scanner. What should I 
do with it?). Currently I'm really working on the address book conduit, and 
as soon as I get something together that can sync reliably using just that 
one conduit, I'll release KPilot 4.3.0 into the wild. 4.3.1 will then have 
the remaining conduits. I hope that will make it possible to get people using 
the new setup, and help find bugs in it, without having to fix all the 
conduits first. Of course, it will mean that KPilot will be kinda crippleware 
(one conduit? you gotta be kidding) for a short while.

PS. The TODO file has been updated, and gives a reasonable indication of the 
kinds of jobs that are lying around.
