Hi Scott!

We got the same problem with Columba currently, as the main developers
(including myself) all been busy with full-time jobs, even though I'm
currently trying to get things started again. After our 1.0 release people
were pretty burned-out ;-)

Our plan is to have a 1.2 release with a chat and calendar prototype
plugin to gather interest and hopefully also more new developers.

And as we make highly use of FlexDock is only natural that we are eager to
test new things for you including providing you feedback and bugfixes. So,
I will do what I can to help, even if its only spreading the word. Heck,
I'm currently running against CVS HEAD, anyways ;-)

The two problems we currently have, mainly maximizing and multiple
perspective managers are bigger contributions, where I can't really help
you with as they are much more time consuming.

I'm forwarding this to our developer mailinglist, so maybe there's
something interested there!

Best regards,
-Frederik
