I saw some posts on slashdot about a project sponsered by the German
Govt. called Kroupware. It's goal is to reproduce all the
functionality of Outlook+Exchange with opensource components. They are
scheduled to release sometime before the end of the year. I think I
might have even read that there were plans for cross-platform clients.
Sound's Pretty sweet.
