Collaboration and working together as much as we can seems central to

I have tried the demos - they are impressive, and nice to see that
janus is packaged - I have not tried installing it on my sample Small
Organisation Server, but I will in order to see how it does with the
limited virtual hardware and how the networking holds up.

Mail is one of the first target applications for a Simple Organisation
Server - I have just installed Postfix on my sample server, and now I
want to integrate it with LDAP, both for forwarding (aliases in LDAP)
and local delivery (into Dovecot with Roundcube for web access)

I did have a quick look at these and will hope to revisit them at some
point. My Danish is very rusty, when looking at some random pages on
Couchdesign, so I only read them quite slowly.
