I looked at Karm and thought that would be useful if it were integrated, but haven't \
used it yet due to it being seperate. I tried the same with outlook once, using its \
journal to keep track of a few phone calls and such. Then I had to add my extra \
fields into the journal form and would then have to search in both to find something, \
it was just simpler in the long run to use the caneldar as a journal. It sounds like \
Karm is going the right way, if it will be able to open the same calendar file, then \
it will just be a seperate front end to the same data (unlike outlook where even \
though all the data is in the same pst file, each task/appointment/journal entry is \
stored seperate). I'm definatly using the calendar functions now, I have all my data \
from outlook copied over and create enrties each day for work I do (I have to report \
it to my manager here, fill our a project tracking report here, fill out a weekly \
timesheet to the consulting company, and fill out a monthly timesheet here as well, \
so I take my calendar data and generate each sheet based off of it, now I just nee \
dto figure out how to do it automated). I haven't tried any CVS stuff yet but as \
soon as I get some more data copied over from my XP partition I can shrink it and \
make some more space. I am assuming the CVS is something like M$ visual source safe \
where it keeps track of versions of code and such. I have been away from the Linux \
world for a while, last time I ran linux was slackware 2.0 on a 386, but started back \
a year or so ago when we setup a nagios box on redhat for a monitoring system. There \
weren't a lot of apps back then, but having recently installed RH9 I see Linux has \
lot more.
