Hi!

As one of the maintainers and lead developers of MrProject I have a few
questions about some of the statements in this mail.

It will take some time before it gets seroius (if at all).

Same for me. Other things have more priority at the moment.I only did one
thing lately: I had
a look at MrProject which has become part GNOME. Some time ago there was a
discussion about a possible
cooperation. The team from MrProject even split the project into a model
and a GUI layer. But afterwards nothing
happened.

After that we took a long hard look at the XML written by MrProject and found
out that it dit not use and store information essential for a mature planning
application.

Where is this review summarized, if you where actually considering using
libmrproject (where we keep the core functionality, non-gui parts) or at
least share XML format it would have been good if you guys let us know
what you think our format lacks.

Also, just because KPlato hasn't moved forward in the last year doesn't
mean we have been sitting idle in the MrProject team. MrProject has come
a long way since then and if you guys think that our format (which we
haven't stabilized yet) still lacks things to be able to be used in a
"mature planning application" please let us know and we'll look into
adding those things.

So basically, if you guys are the least interested in *some* corporation
or file format sharing, please let us know what you think we lack
instead of doing it your own way (which is the worst possible solution
for everyone, not least the users).
