Status
Consonance is under heavy development, there is no stable release. It is not feature complete. However, it is developed to the point that it is useful depending on what you need to do. And trying it out and reporting any problems or deficiencies will facilitate progress. If you have some C# experience and would like to assist in the development of Consonance do not hesitate to contact us.
Your Help Is Wanted
If you are an adept with Gtk# and would be willing to take a look at our use of Gtk#'s notorious/infamous TreeView/TreeFilter/TreeModel or at our calendar widget code and to offer us concrete suggestions to make it better/faster we'd almost certainly be willing to send you pizza/beverage-of-your-choice!
Currently (2009-01-10) Consonance is developed with Mono 2.0.1, Gtk# 2.12.5, and Monodevelop 1.9-1.3
"Bloatware!" Deflector
Consonance is a groupware client, not a PIM. It is intended from the beginning to be a large application, with significant resource requirements, with many features. Groupware is software for those with complex collaboration needs, those with simpler needs won't "get it". We are just fine with that; don't bother to try and explain to us how we are wrong because you have lesser needs.
