I am sad to read that Akonadi is no longer considered a user's PIM hub and is 
now just an implementation detail of KDEPIM.

I always felt that having PIM as a service was one of the most important goals 
of the project and for FOSS desktop and mobile computing in general.

For calendar and contacts we have still EDS of course, but I am not sure they 
have managed to add email yet.

Ah well, all good things come to an end at some point.

Cheers,
Kevin
