Itinerary is a terrible name for a terrific app that made traveling way less stressful for me.
Hey, I am really excited about this!
A few questions:
- Will this be developed in parallel to #Kontact, are the same devs working on it, is only the UI changing and background things kept the same? Will it replace Kontact some time, swapping out, or getting the name?
- Is #CalDAV support possible currently, in the past or planned? It is a major dealbreaker for me currently.
- Are CalDAV features supported by #DAVx5 planned? Like journals?
- The #Flatpak is kinda bundled in the “Kontact” Flatpak. Will this change?
I’m a pretty satisfied Kontact user right now. I appreciate the integration of everything, but the one thing I would really look at improving is the RAM usage of Akonadi server, it eats up quite a lot of RAM for a program/backend meant just to integrate that information. Are there plans to improve that, or will Merkuro improve on that at all?
Merkuro is built on Akonadi, so in that sense there will be no change.
I apologize. What is the KDE community?
No need to apologise. Take a look:
KDE: Kommunity of Developers and Endusers.
I’ve always heard it stood for k desktop environment
We phased out “KDE” as an acronym years ago.
