I believe the author is a former LWN editor/contributor, so I'm really suprised this package didn't get mentioned. I downloaded this just the other day, but I haven't had time to try it out yet. I'm interested in it's Palm sync capabilties.

XNotesPlus is non-free Posted Mar 10, 2004 13:56 UTC (Wed) by ber (subscriber, #2142) [Link] XNotesPlus is proprietary software.I expect LWN to only consider Free Software for such a task.
A grumpy editor's calendar search Posted Mar 10, 2004 14:08 UTC (Wed) by utidjian (subscriber, #444) [Link] XNotesPlus is not "free". It is shareware. Yes, the source is available... but it doesn't build on my system (something about pspell). J-pilot does. It also has a horrendously ugly interface (from the screenshots). I suppose the interface is adjustable but it is hard to tell when it won't build. Seems that supported binaries (US$10) are available up to Red Hat 7.3. RH7.3 is no longer supported by Red Hat. In other words... XNotesPlus seems to be an even more deadend proposition than ical. ical, BTW, still builds and installs correctly on my system (Fedora Core 1).-DU-...etc...
