1. libetpan

There is some work available in the CVS :
- libetpan has a new build system for Unix automake is now used. Thanks to Marcus Brinkmann for this work.
Funny that automake will automatically import the GPL licence into your project in a COPYING and also overwrite this file if this contains something else. Use –foreign to avoid this behavior.
- Sebastien Marinier did some work to fix the Windows build.
- a basic RSS/ATOM fetcher/parser has been implemented in libetpan. This was based on rssyl-ng/libfeed implementation. Thanks to Andrej Kacian.

2. PaperLess

A basic scanner application has been implemented for Mac OS X. This is called PaperLess. This will allow you to perform multiple-page document scan and save the document to PDF.

3. etpanX

etpanX is still in progress.

3.1. Account synchronization

synchronization An IMAP synchronization and POP synchronization has been implemented. Still some improvement is needed but user experience is now nearly a local access when reading mails in the IMAP account after the first synchronization with the IMAP server.

3.2. Filter

The implementation of filter is in progress. The plan for filter implementation is :
- Filter will not block the user interface even if it takes some time.
- Only messages from the main mailbox of a given account will be filtered.
- Message that were not yet filtered will be hidden.
- As soon as messages have been process, they will be visible.

4. Reading
