Open source solutions like Kolab, OpenGroupware, Open-Xchange, eGroupware, etc. do solve all or at least most of these issues today (depending on what server you look at and the exact use case you have). Maybe this fact is just not known enough. -- Cornelius Schumacher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ Desktop_architects mailing list Desktop_architects@lists.osdl.org https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop_architects

The idea is > fundamentally good. Yes. For KDE we decided to replace our own home-brewn solutions by OpenSync for KDE 4. It traditionally works well on GNOME as it's the successor of MultiSync and others also have said that they wanted to use it. OpenSync has a sane modular architecture, is cross-desktop and cross-operating-system and there are plugins for most standard devices. In my opinion it's going to solve the handheld syncing problem. Hubert is right, give it some love :-) -- Cornelius Schumacher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ Desktop_architects mailing list Desktop_architects@lists.osdl.org https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop_architects
