Hello Ralf, On Montag, 12. Januar 2009, Ralf Habacker answered to Bernhard: > > The KMail within Kontact Enterprise4 has reached beta status > > (minus packaging).

Berlin is another potential place. My experience with the discussion is, that it is difficult and we need to inquire more. This prevents an effective meeting as of today, because it is hard to decide in a low data situation. > In the past we got several requests/ideas from which the > following topics are extracted: > > - package size improvements (better compression e.g. lzma) > - single application packages > - dependency improvements and base package splits to reduze required > installation size (there were reports that amarok needs about 500 MB > installation size yet) > - single application standalone installer > - required installer features and improvements > - more topics ? One discussion on gpg4win-devel@ went into the subject, start the thread with the last part of the following email http://lists.wald.intevation.org/pipermail/gpg4win-devel/2008-October/000760.html Currently we (as in KK team) attack the dbus on windows problem. Also we try to get experience with cross-compiling kdepim (and the stack under it) for gpg4win. Cross-compilation is interesting to solve several problems with builds and distribution for KDE on windows. - We need to ship the exact source code, scripts and tools to build each specific binary shipped for GNU (L)GPL licensing. Thus the packaging tool would need to assemble the source code. - We need dependency handling for the source code packages. Emerge currently cannot do this, Debian or RPM would allow this.
