It did work :-)  All my old contacts are there.  It's clear now that I have 
been misunderstanding things.  I feel much more confident now, but I really 
think that I must write all this up on userbase.  It should save an awful lot 
of repetitious writing :-)

OK, that's fine, thanks.

One last question.  When the rest of the components move to akonadi, will all 
the data be under ~/.local/share?  From what you've said, it sounds as though 
it will, which again should make backup easy.
