RG> - db: why? just use the ical and vcard files! They are files,
RG> they are in a directory, they can be used like dovecot uses eml
RG> files! No need for postgresql or mysql.

RG> - webmail: why? We use dovecot!!!

RG> - apache web: why? we use nginx.

RG> - linux: why? we use other unix systems.

RG> - python: why? it takes 140MB all by itself, it is an interpreter

RG> Bloody hell...
