Hi, summarizing: EMAIL CLIENT - Modest (open source and based on the Tinymail framework) is going to substitute the current email client that is still being shipped in OS2008. The sources are out there and being refreshed regularly but compile them is not easy at this point. - We are going to make releases under development through one-click install for public testing and feedback, as we did with the Mozilla based browser and SIP features. The first release will come at the same time as Chinook final and the N810 hit the streets. There will be additional releases until we get the final one. - About Modest: API for applications in place, IMAP no problem and good integration with popular web based services. Just to make things clear, the address book component is not part of the Modest project. - Once we release the first version under development we will open the typical channels of communication: garage news, bugs in Bugzilla, developers available through planet blog and maemo-developers list. RSS client - The home applet is totally rewritten. - The application has been improved. Most if not all the bugs that were bothering you are now fixed. In the following days the developers will go through the bugs at Bugzilla updating the to the according status in OS2008. -- Quim Gil - http://maemo.org
