The reason that you don't see new packages is that the autobuilder for them is using the komo3 branch, not any of the actively developed ones (4.6 or master for example). > Kontact Touch on the N900 was a side product of a project > by a number of companies.

Which does not mean nothing is happening. Focus has slightly shifted back to the desktop versions, but since the code is largely shared, many fixes and performance improvements made there benefit the mobile version as well. > Attempts to find new funds for continuing development for MeeGo based phones > also did not work out, for the obvious reason that Nokia stopped producing > MeeGo based phones. Despite the lack of funding, there actually are MeeGo packages for KDE PIM, and they also caused a number of fixes and improvements for Kontact Touch that are not available in the Maemo 5 packages yet. > The other players in the community did not pick Kontact Touch development, > so there are no interesting new developments right now.

There have been quite some fixes for those issues on the desktop, in code shared with the mobile apps, but it still has to be verified if it helps on the N900 as well. > Help with development or anything else is highly appreciated, > this is just us, the Kontact Touch community. :) Switching the autobuilder to master or at least 4.6 would be a good start ;) regards Volker
