That's definately the case! I'm currently writing a paper for Linux Tag=20
and Linux Developers Conference about the kolab client. One of the topics=20
I'll talk about is what is needed for other projects to work with the=20
server and the current client.

I'm already doing that :-)

Jokes aside, I would suggest to you to join with an existing project - be=20
it webbased, Evolution, Mozilla or whatever. Writing a full iCalendar=20
application together with an email client is a *huge* task. We have spent=20
many months on just making KMail and KOrganizer work the way we needed=20
them to.
