Should be. However, the version in akonadi-ports is far away from 
being useful. I estimate that a the port is a little more than half 
done. The missing bits are mainly text/rich text stuff etc.

1) We need to have some way to migrate knotes into akonadi notes that 
can be read with an akonadi application. That's not done yet.
2) There is so far no way to import KJots notes into akonadi notes 
yet.
3) We can remove knotes when kjots (akonadi version implemented) gets 
merged into trunk. I don't see any rush.
4) I don't know the knotes code, but we could probably implement a 
replacement using plasma? Seeing as we need to implement "notes in a 
plasma context" anyway, having a plasma version could be good because 
a) it means knotes doesn't go away, which could be good from a 
perspection POV, b) people like things using plasma, so we can get 
good vibes from that potentially.

All the best,

Steve.
