-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you looked into it and don't think you need it, you probably don't. As far as what it is (from their FAQ): 1.1. What is the Kroupware project? The companies Erfrakon, Intevation and Klarälvdalens Datakonsult have been contracted by the German Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI) (Federal Agency of IT-Security) to provide a Free Software groupware solution accessible with Windows running Outlook and GNU/Linux running KDE clients. These companies do the develop in an open manner as much as possible and maximise the benefits for the Free Software community. Kroupware is the name for the activities done by this group under this contract. Now, why you might need it... Well, if you are interested in replacing Outlook/Exchange with a free, OSS alternative this could be your solution. Or, as in my case, if you simply like having your PIM applications accessible through one interface rather than multiple programs. With Kroupware you launch KMail and can access your calendar, to do list, contacts, and notes from there. Vince On Saturday 19 July 2003 07:33 pm, Doug McGarrett wrote:

This looks like a clone of Lotus Notes. I haven't heard of it before, and now that I'm retired, I don't need Notes. Perhaps someone should describe the program for the rest of us. And tell us why we need it, if we do.
