After re-reading Anne's message I see that she only planned to add a 
short introduction for each component of Kontact to userbase.kde.org 
[1] linking to http://kontact.kde.org/ for further info. I don't think 
this approach is a good idea because it means there would be two places 
that needed to be updated and kept in sync. I'm much more in favor of 
Thorsten's suggestion [2]. So, Anne's work is just the first step.
