The meeting took place from January 6th to January 9th 2005 at Osnabrück and was once again kindly hosted by Intevation. Participants included the usual bunch of KDE PIM hackers and people from the Kolab and OpenGroupware.org projects.
Lots of time was spent on discussions about the current state and the future of KDE PIM either informally or in a couple of meeting sessions. There are some more detailed reports about them at the end of this page.
In spite of distractions like the need for consumption of food we also found time for hacking, although this mainly happend during the night. As result a fair amount of bugs was fixed, some features were done like the kded module for online/offline state handling or the new recipients editor for the KMail composer and there also was time for cool stuff like the designer plugin for KParts.
On Saturday Helge from the OpenGroupware.org project joined us for some discussion about the GroupDAV protocol and implementation issues on the server and the client side.
As usual the meeting was not only pretty productive, but also quite some fun. We were able to complete our agenda and everyone left happy though tired. We are looking forward to the next occasion for a kdepim gathering. Numbers also speak for themselves: 133 commits were made and 40 bugs have been resolved on bugs.kde.org.
