Hello,

There are a few new blog posts that might be of interest to you:

http://kolab.org/blog/timotheus-pokorra/2013/10/23/howto-improve-debian-packages-using-obs
Step by step instructions how to use OBS for improving the Debian
packages of Kolab.
There are many people having problems with the Debian packages, and
this is a quick tutorial that shows how you can get involved in fixing
bugs easily, and contributing the fixes upstream.

Nightly builds are now available for Debian too. This fixes bug 2404.
The packages are still highly experimental, but can be useful for
testing, providing feedback, etc

http://kolab.org/blog/timotheus-pokorra/2013/10/22/downloading-obs-repo-php-proxy-file
This describes how to download packages from the OBS server even when
your proxy has a problem with port 82...

See also the blog post by Torsten, quoting Jeroen:

Since there seems to be no corporate funding available for the Debian
packages, we all need to pull together as a community and get it done!

All the best,
  Timotheus
