Please note that Free Software is in most cases not packaged by the people 
that develop it. Usually, people develop software which is then packaged by 
the various distributions. Kolab has been packaged by Debian for example, but 
is currently not included anymore for lack of packagers.

Kolab Systems (mostly in the form of Jeroen van Meeuwen) provides the OBS and 
the packages in there to support the community, but it does not backport fixes 
all the time to already released versions.

It is not like no one is pushing in fixes. It is just not enough people, 
because they are all volunteers with limited time available. There is Aeneas 
Jaißle who does a lot of OpenSUSE packaging, there's Paul Klos, Paul Boddie, 
Daniel Hoffend and Timotheus Pokorra for Debian. The latter also does some 
CentOS. This might already sound a lot, but it is not enough to keep everybody 
with their issues happy and definitely not enough to get Kolab directly into 
the various distributions.

So please consider getting signed up on the devel list and getting involved in 
the OBS.

Kind Regards,
Torsten
