Yes, and informative.

I have to agree with John here. I have wanted a good Exchange
Replacement/Groupware add-on for SME for some time and have spent time
looking/playing with most of them. In the end I have either gone with a
different solution (i.e. Web-based, or Bynari Server) when needed. Personally I
think integrating kolab (or the like) into SME is a 'massive' undertaking and is
not a project that should be undertaken without a great deal of infrastructure
in place. Let's walk before we run - so to speak. There are a lot of changes
happening in the 'SME World' and maybe making sure the house is in order before
adding another floor might be the best plan. 

I like the outline that Brad has sent, but would like to digest it for a little
bit. 

Lot's of good ideas flowing here though....

(Crazy...hardly anything on this list for a while - go away for a couple of
weeks - and WHAM-O)
