One that I would *love* to see updated is sogo, which is in the gnustep

Very fast/lightweight (one server can handle thousands of users)
fullblown Exchange Server replacement that fully supports
Thunderbird+Lightning, as well as Outlook (NATIVE support, no MAPI
plugin required, it actually thinks it is talking to an Exchange
Server), and pretty much every mobile client out there, including Apple
iCal/iPhone, Blackberry & Windows Mobile (requires the Funambol SOGo
Connector), and Android...
The latest ebuild available is 1.2.1 which is really old - the current
version of SOGo is 2.0.7, and has *massive* improvements over the 1.x
series...
Also - it is also - or will be, I don't see anything on the current
website yet - capable of acting as a full blown Active Directory Server
with integration of Samba4 and Openchange, so, hopefully in the
foreseeable future, SOGo will be able to fully replace an AD Domain
*and* Exchange Server...
My plan is to get this installed in the next few weeks (I have paid
support from Inverse for this), and if/when the time comes to upgrade my
2008R2 domain controllers, I'll be migrating to SOGo AD Domain
controllers instead. I figure by that time (a few years or so), SOGo
will be well ready for prime time.
