I guess you are refering to the KDAB/Kolab Konsortium team here, so let me try to give you a bit of background on this. There is in fact a sizeable team at KDAB working on kdepim, atm, has been, for months, but currently not (yet) focused on stabilizing trunk overall. Namely Marc, Frank, Laurent, Volker, Andreas, Thomas, Pradeepto and myself, with help from David. We're working in several areas, atm: 1) Maintaining the ultra stable proko2 branch, the Kolab client still used by many Kolab users. 2) Implementing contracted features and bugfixes on top of the 3.5 code base, namely the enterprise branch, those were forward ported to trunk, until that froze, and are now forward ported into a temporary work branch of trunk, to be merged when trunk unfreezes. Bugfixes also go into 3.5 as applicable. The reason for the branch is the feature and docs freeze on 3.5, of course. 3) Fixing and extending the crypto infrastructure in trunk and making it work on all of KDE's target platforms, specifically Windows. This also happens in a branch, atm, and will of course also be merged into trunk at the earliest opportunity. This includes a merge of kpgp and kleopatra, among other things. 4) Based on trunk and the work from 2) and 3), building the next generation Kolab client. The timelines for these activities are: 1) is to go on for as long as we have customer interest in it. 2) will continue until the end of November, at which point all contracted bugfixes and features will be done. This then goes into maintainance mode. 3) will be done by the middle of November. 4) is ongoing, albeit overshadowed by the others, and will pick up steam once 2) and 3) are complete. This means that we will start focusing on kdepim trunk in general towards the end of November and keep at it until we have a stable Kolab client (Kontact, in other words) based on KDE4. That said, we will try to free up some time to help get KMail usable in trunk in time for 4.0, but overall we are driven by customer schedules and priorities more than KDE schedules, I'm afraid, at least in our paid time. Many of us also spend spare time on KDE, in various areas, but of course that time is not subject to KDAB scheduling.

I don't know yet. I was told several months ago that kdepim was going to receive a large increase in manpower by now... not sure what happened. Probably better to have people to use a reliable kmail3 under the kde4 desktop than having people lose data with a buggy kmail4. other non-kmail apps in kdepim are looking pretty good, however. -Allen ___ release-team mailing list release-team@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team

KDEPim 4. was not declared a show stopper for 4.0 before. I agree that bugs in the libraries that are possibly exposed by kmail, but maybe also by other applications have to be fixed. but that is not the same level as saying "kmail is a ship stopper". There is nobody working on KDE Pim for 4.0, and with nobody working on it, the amount of time needed for getting it ready is definitely unpredictable.

But it's not possible to send mail > 15k at the moment (not a kmail issue). We want that fixed for the release. On the other hand, we should wait until we receive the info from my questionaire to them and see which parts are real showstoppers. KMail only bugs should not block the release of course, but its general state reflects the overall state of some libs.
