Will we ditch all traditional contact and calendar resources 
(KResources) as well? I guess, we can't do so because of KDE's backwards 
compatibility.

Apart from the already mentioned KDE contact resources (IMAP, LDAP) and 
the local ones (file, folder) there are at least the following resources 
at the moment:
GroupDAV
Novell GroupWise
Network
OpenXchange
SUSE LINUX Openexchange

Will KDE SC 4.5 include native Akonadi resources for all of them?

There's a similar list of KDE calendar resources.

What is the difference between those two resources anyway?
