I do not want to be bitching, but when the move to kabc was decided just 
before the release of KDE 3, I said we should be very careful when dealing 
with this kind of sensitive data. kabc seems to be very immature to me, it is 
moving and changing, supporting a number of new features that do not even 
have user interfaces (SQL support comes to mind). 

We should keep this in mind as a lesson for the future. And we should think 
about decision making here. kabc is an example where a number of people seem 
to add features at will.
