KdePimDay and Groupware details

As promised in my last blog (read here) here's some extra information on the groupware servers, the PIM applications and which versions you need for triaging.

Servers which require KDE 4.1.x or newer

• eGroupware, XML-RPC
• Kolab2, IMAP
• regular IMAP (Kolab1)
• OpenXchange
• LDAP

Servers which require KDE compiled from trunk, newer than r862285

• Citadel, GroupDAV
• eGroupware, GroupDAV

For directions getting a recent version of KDE from our repositories running,

• see the techbase build instructions,
• or consult your distribution which might provide packages for you

Preregistration

To get access to the servers, please preregister by sending a (possibly signed) mail to lemma (at) confuego (dot) org so I can verify your email address and identity - as well as send you back your credentials in a secure way. If you don't have a trusted key, you'll still be able to use at least half of the servers as they are running on VMs and have EMail turned off. Latecomers will be able to register while the event is running, but please bear in mind that creating the accounts on-the-fly will require you to wait a while.

When and where?

We'll be starting the triage this Sunday around 07:00 UTC. To join in just direct your IRC client to our IRC channel (#kde-bugs on FreeNode) and say something like "Hi, I'm here to help" We'll also provide help setting up your kontact with the servers.
