Re: KDE-PIM meeting and akonadi
by Kevin Krammer on Saturday 02/Feb/2008, @12:57

The interview has been published and thus contacted before we, the KDE PIM developers here at our annual meeting Osnabrück, decided to keep the applications at their current data access methods rather than to risk our users PIM data on possible last minute bugs because of difficulties of new code and old code working together.

However, based on our today's decision, Akonadi will be released with 4.1 and there is a good chance that new applications will be released simultaniously or shortly after, e.g. Mailody.

We are also working on options to use Akonadi in the current applications by providing compatability implementations contact and calendar resources, which will allow applications to access Akonadi through the old APIs (KABC and KCal respectively)

You can consider it as a soft migration path instead of an "import and never look back" approach.
