+1 on this. I know things are difficult right now, but not even being
able to get a 'non-ancient' version of our default KDE email client and
groupware (KMail, Korganiser, Knotes, Kontact etc) into the archive is
utterly disheartening.
In addition, things continue to move on, and soon there will be more new
sources required, so we fall even further behind, and cannot offer up to
date software that other distributions do.
Thanks.
I apologise for 'nagging'
