That are really great news! :)

Well, our current code is part of akonadi, which can be compiled by
doing a make in trunk/KDE/kdepim/akonadi. However we use the
'send-signal-to-main-thread-do-dbus-query-from-there-and-pass-result-back-to-worker-thread'
hack you suggested during akademy there. For testing the new Qt code we'd
have to modify the akonadi code.

Can you provide a patch which we apply to our local qt-copy to evaluate?

Oh, that's such an important feature, you'll love it ;)

Ciao,
