I think this is a bad idea. At least Kontact and its core plugins should=20
always be in KDEPIM.

We should definitely disable apps which are not ready. The questions is: wh=
ich=20
are those apps and can they be fixed instead?

We should gather showstoppers on a wiki page and try to fix those issues. I=
've=20
started such a list at http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/PIM/KDE_4-
related_bugs#Major_bugs_.2F_Showstoppers .

I think KOrganizer, Kontact, KAddressbook, KMail and Akregator can be ready=
=20
for 4.1. Again, if there are major problems with that, add them to the wiki=
=20
page. A month before the release we should try hard to fix those, even if=20
we're not the maintainer of the respective app.

I have no ideas about other apps (expect KAlarm and KTimeTracker, which bot=
h=20
seem to be in very good shape).

I would like to hear about all major KMail problems you guys still have.

And I'll try to use Kontact4 for my daily work now (until now, I've only us=
ed=20
KMail4), so I can find problems in the parts I use.

Regards,
Thomas
