I support this statement.

When using Dynamic Views I often get the feeling that not everything  
plays together, not all is logically aligned, and the most annoying  
case (at this time) is that not all is dynamic at the moment. Arising  
questions.

I could see a fully dynamic and logically aligned horde in the future,  
or a horde not being (easily) used anymore.

Please dont feel hit on the leg, for I just want also help make horde  
a super Groupware at all.
And to mention, I still feel that Horde is best choice, still, in  
things of Groupware.
