Here is my weekly update on what is hot in our development teams in calendar week (CW) 15.
IN FOCUS
A PIM for OpenOffice.org – What's going on?
“ In 2006, a Personal Information Manager (PIM) has been added to the roadmap of OpenOffice.org. Users constantly asked for this feature, and it's still seen as a key missing piece towards a full OpenSource Office solution. The PIM targets to complete OpenOffice.org's productivity offering by providing an integrated E-Mail, calendaring and addressbook client. “
