Any chance you're working toward an ActiveSync add-in?
I.e. can the email client connect natively with O365 or Exchange for all of that goodness?
Exchange has IMAP natively. So it already works with that natively.
Does Exchange's IMAP supports calendar and contacts? I was under the impression that the only way to get that from Exchange was AS or CardDAV/CalDAV? and those DAV things aren't real time bi-directional syncing.
IMAP is a standard protocol. There are not "Exchange IMAP" versions or it would not be IMAP. IMAP is a mailbox transport protocol only. It's never attempted to tackle any other functionality nor should it as there are other protocols for that.
Right, so you just ignored the for all of that goodness? portion of my post.

But I answered the question. If you ask what IMAP supports, the answer will always be the same. IMAP is a mailbox protocol.

I'm in the Netherlands and as such mo focus is Dutch localized support for our Church members.
I notice now that I'm struggling to get some e-mail templates changed in Dutch Language ; and I see as well other client GUI text still is in English; is there a way we can help or report those defects or is local localization support a low fruit? -
@jospoortvliet Thanks! Is there any release date? Or preview client? It was announced last week but the update is not yet showing up on the beta directory listing. Cheers!

Unfortunately Exchange doesn't implement standard protocols.

Going away from the open core was the right step. Still, Nextcloud (.com) is owned by the Nextcloud GmbH, will there ever be non-profit organization or a foundation that holds all the trademarks and domains.

Does it make sense for the domains and trademarks are non-profits? The code is what is important to protect and non-profits bring many of their own concerns. It sounds good, but I think in practice I'd prefer a company to control the identify rather than a non-profit.

Good question and the answer is 'yes'. Frankly we wanted to do this much earlier but it is a fair amount of work and we are still very busy building up the project. The plan is to create a foundation that would own the trademark and, under certain circumstances (like a take-over of the business) have the right to take it away from the company. The board of the foundation would consist of a majority of non-company-affiliated people, and the community should vote on who's on there.
Open questions are what else the foundation should do. Accept and handle donations? Do the conference? Even some development? Or nothing other than the trademark protection? These things have their pro's and cons so we have to have a wider discussion still. Perhaps at the upcoming Nextcloud conference, I'm not sure yet. We will have a solution in 2017, though, I am quite certain of that.
