Hi!

Kolab (http://www.kolab.org) is an IMAP based groupware server that
works with a variety of clients. The server is usually deployed on the
OpenPKG distribution which allows to preconfigure the complex
combination of postfix, cyrus imap, openldap, amavisd etc. This
significantly reduces the effort for the system administrator to get
the groupware server up and running.

I have been working on integrating this groupware server natively into
Gentoo for two years now. The "kolab2" overlay provides the native
server version since about one and a half years.

There is still a lot of work necessary to get the upstream code into
shape so that it has the necessary quality to package it in a sane way
for portage. I'm working on that.

The project has advanced far enough though that I feel it is a good
time point to declare this a real Gentoo project.

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/kolab/index.xml

A first target of the project will be the integration of Kolab
specific patches into the packages "net-libs/c-client", "dev-lang/php"
as well as "net-mail/cyrus-imapd".

I know there are other developers (and probably many users) interested
in the Kolab server project and I'd be glad if people join the effort.

Cheers,

Gunnar
