This is caused by the new Planner summary that Oral is developing.
So at least we know the bug isn't in the 3.5.6 release.

I begged the documentation team for help.  Jes Hall volunteered.
We'll see what happens.


As for the never-ending-stream of bugs:  We really need to thank
Bram, Phil, Tommie, and Thomas for all the great triage work.
Without the triage we'd be totally lost.

Would anyone be interested in having a KDEPIM Bug Fixing Weekend?
Nothing formal.  We don't need a dot story.  Just get together in #kontact
some weekend soon and fix bugs?  Just an idea.
