Lol .. not from an English speakers point of view. For the "pim" part is a contraction of Personal Information Manager, an umberalla term that covers anything to do with organising your personal data.
The term PIM or Personal Information Manager is never used in the application itself or in it's name, therefore IMO kdepim is simply an illogical package name for a program called KOrganizer.
But kdepim doesn't just contain korganiser, it contains other apps as well. Have a look at the start of the README: /usr/share/doc/packages/kdepim/README .. it says .. The KDE-PIM project aims to bring together those who wish to help design, implement, test, etc. anything that's to do with personal information management. So the name of the package is intended to contain the creations of the project, which makes perfect sense. I think if you check you won't find any application names containing the word "toys" in kdetoys, or "util" in kdeutils, etc, either. Sorry, but your argument doesn't really stand up. Regards, John
