        4. What are these 'Outlook Redemption libraries' - which are
        non-free, commercially licensed - that are required for
        installation, why are they needed, and will they always be
        needed?


    I plan to get rid of Redemption libraries but not in near future.
    They are used to bypass Microsoft Outlook security patch which
    prevents connector to work fine without user input (you will have
    to confirm that other app wants to modify your calendar etc...)

    Ok, so, one follow-up question on this...

    On the download site for the redemption libraries, it specifically
    says:

    "This version displays a message box when it is installed on any
    computer.
    It is licensed for the development purposes only and cannot be
    used with any commercial software.
    Includes both 32 and 64 bit versions."

    http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/download.htm

    I'm guessing since both SOGo and the new GetOut Connector are
    free/open-source licensed, there is no problem using them until
    you are able to remove the requirement?


I'm not licensing expert but I think it's OK to use Redemption with open source licensed projects.


    Last question... how long do you anticipate before you have
    something  that is usable/ready for testing?


You can check project page (https://sourceforge.net/projects/getout) and download prebuilt binary there. I already installed it for some users (~10) and everything works fine so you can test it as well ;)

Hi Adam,

I don't see anything new any progress on the project page since your March announcement...

Anything new to report on this?

Thanks,

Charles
