It's a full-blown collaboration/groupware server and it will likely need a fair bit of coordination between different herds and maintainers as it uses several major F/OSS components which (at least until recently) need patches and integration changes to be usable with Kolab. http://kolab.org/about-kolab-server.html > I don't mean any offense.

Having tried to use Kolab on Gentoo before, I assume it will be the latter that makes a Kolab project reasonable. Best regards, Wulf
