Hi PIMsters,

You may notice that a large number of the KDE websites were updated this week 
to the "new" look. Not so PIM, because it has its own color scheme. We 
introduced this scheme ages ago in order to distinguish 
the "business-oriented" PIM developer site from others. It's trivial to port 
PIM to the new look but without different colors -- I did the defunct kpilot 
part of PIM last week before finally removing it.

So, since we're (I use "we" loosely because I hardly consider myself part of 
the PIM community any more) lacking a webmaster and content updates only very 
rarely on the PIM website, I'm going to ask a few questions:

1) Do we really want to keep the "special" blue look? The revised look would 
have (soon, once the artists create one) a PIM or Kontact logo in the 
upper-right -- see the aKademy site vs. www.kde.org for instance.

2) Do we really need the site at all? The point of pim.kde.org was to contain 
developer information for PIM and express some of the developer community 
like the Osnabruck meetings. The developer information itself could easily be 
put under developer.kde.org -- a page "what's special about PIM" for 
instance. The community things -- giving the PIM project a face -- could move 
to the kontact website.

3) Do we have any plan to get the user website kontact.kde.org up and running 
again? It has not updated much in over a year either. Suppose we could get 
content -- from the user list for instance, where Alex, Art and Anne have 
been doing a really good job running support -- how should we publish it?
