I think it has, in effect, died. Yours is the first e-mail on the list since I 
re-joined at the beginning of April 2004. It seems that the project has been 
abandoned to SourceForge to find its own way in the world.

iirc, Several years ago, I got it to at least install shortly after the 
project was launched, but at that stage in the Kontor development, most of 
the documentation and screen annotations were in German, so this poor 
mono-lingual Englishman was totaly lost. It looked so good, and it was a 
great disappointment to find that I could not make use of it without 
considerable effort and expense.

it has forged the e-mail headers on someone else's machine.
Please do not notify me when this occurs. Thanks.
