So far, so good. I've managed to complete the myPal framework test. The whole point was to create an out-of-the-box implementation that myPal could be built on. With this, I mean that if the group decides that we should use this framework, we can use myPal-FWT without having to modify it. Reverse engineering is always fun, and I've had two frustrating weeks now. I took JPF-Demo, and removed all application specific code until I was left with the framework and the code that initiates the first main window.

The application is ready to accept three plugins: org.mypal.email, org.mypal.mycal and org.mypal.manager. With this, the path for the forst release is set: Email, Calendar and contact management functionality. The first release will not include a backend server, nor any possibilities to add myPal contacts, so Contact Managers functionality for the first release will be more like an adress book for the email client.
