[Kde-pim] Future of SMS messaging through Kontact

[Matthias Lechner]

Hi Stephen,

Yes, currently the mailing list only holds commit messages, development 
decisions are made on IRC.
I am not sure about the kontact integration state of KMobileTools in its 
current subversion revision, but it used to integrate in KMobileTools 
0.5-beta3.

Ok, that is the way I like it :-)

Since KMobileTools is developed in kdepim, you can find API docs at 
http://api.kde.org under kdepim/kmobiletools.

If you are interested in KMobileTools development (which I can promise 
is definitely fun :-)), you can join #kmobiletools on freenode or send 
me an e-mail (matthias at lmme.de).


Best regards
Matthias
