> The kde-pim team would like to merge the Kleopatra enterprise branch
> from the Kolab Konsortium [1] into trunk for the upcoming 4.1 release.
> This will provide a much better kde-pim experience in 4.1 -- it will
> provide many bugfixes as well as the Kleopatra features listed on the
> Feature Plan[2].
>
> We PIMsters really would love to have this in 4.1, as we have many
> users requiring excellent cryptographic support.  The code is externally
> QA'ed, so it is stable already. And we really need this for our Mac and
> Windows users.
>
> So, yes.. this breaks the feature freeze and the string freeze.
> We estimate 100-150 string changes.
>
> I know.. I know.. but we have a unique situation in kde-pim where
> most of our contributors work for the consortium and do us a great
> service and there would be no kde-pim without them.
>
> In summary:  We are asking permission to make this merge happen.
> Please let us know your objections or thoughts on this matter.

> Regards,

> PS. There will also be a brand-new, up-to-date handbook for Kleopatra.
> But that isn't ready yet, so I'll ask about that at a later date.

That's of course quite much work but if it really is so important, let it be.
