Kontact is in 3.2, but it's not a Kolab client yet :-(

We - as in the KDE PIM people - will release kdepim 3.3 separately from 
KDE in about 3 or 4 months and that will contain a Kontact that will be a 
full Kolab client. It will also include some other goodies. See 
http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kdepim-3.3-features.html 
for the 3.3 feature plan. Now, as always with a KDE feature plan, we will 
not guarantee any of the features, but the Kolab client part is 
definately going to be in there. You can also see the release plan at 
http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kdepim-3.3-release-plan.html

BTW, as of KDE 3.2, all the parts that was in kroupware kdenetwork has 
been moved to the kdepim module. This means Kontact or the future Kolab 
client is no longer part of kdenetwork at all, but only kdepim.

Most of kroupware_branch have been ported over to KDE 3.2, but all of the 
groupware scheduling is missing. Also, the free/busy features of it has 
been hidden, since they conflict with the fb settings of the standard 
KOrganizer. These remaining features have almost been implemented in KDE 
CVS HEAD now, but still needs more QA and a bit more development before 
it's ready.

It's too bad that we couldn't make the 3.2 release have a full client, but 
that wasn't to be.

Bo.
