I'm not sure about moving anything to unmaintained unless the application really is unmaintained (not just "needs work when a developer has the time"). The danger is that something moved to unmaintained may get abandoned there. KDEPIM is getting to be a huge and wide-ranging package, would it be worth splitting it up into two? The main applications (KMail+kmailcvt, Kontact, Korganiser) are big and extensive enough to justify a package of their own, separate from the secondary apps (notes, mobile tools, sync...). Having the second category still part of an official release would avoid them disappearing. The goal for 4.1 could then be "all apps in PIM1 ready", and "PIM2 ready" for 4.2. Somebody's "secondary application", of course, is somebody else's "can't do without"... - Jonathan -- Jonathan Marten http://www.keelhaul.demon.co.uk Twickenham, UK jjm2@keelhaul.demon.co.uk _______________________________________________ KDE PIM mailing list kde-pim@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-pim KDE PIM home page at http://pim.kde.org/
