Aethera 1.0

Posted by michael on from the look-out dept.

gatch writes "theKompany.com released version 1.0 of their cross-platform PIM suite Aethera. KOrganizer is included as a calendar and todo list component. Check out these screenshots. According to Shawn Gordon, theKompany president, 'Actually we are about 2 weeks away from having Aethera work with Kolab [groupware server] - at least that is our sense of it at the moment.' Interesting discussion at KDE.news."

      I am afraid Bug-Compliance (TM) will be available in version 2. Along with a MS-Virus (TM) emulation for allowing you to run Windows based viruses.

    Groupware ... thats where they bundle so many things into a single 'app' that it takes up large chunks of your memory even if you don't really want to use half of it.

    I hope they will make the 'components' available as individual apps, or are we just talking KMail, KOrganiser, etc ?

    Until they can build in compatibility with Microsoft vulnerabilities, you are welcome to use the Linux virus. It works on the honor system:

    Make annoying changes to your files. Then send this Linux honor system virus to everyone you know.

    On a related note, where did this K-ism thing come from? It really bugs me, quite honestly.

    Some names you can use if you don't want the KDE folks to make a KDE port of your app: Rap, Rud, Ringeworthy, Rotch, Ock, Litoris, Unt...

    The screenshots look ugly! WinXP'ish icons, no anti-aliasing, and the colors........now, at least people migrating from Win3.1 will feel right at home.

    Thanks, you may mod me down now.
