[Kde-pim] Cleaning up obsolete features

Yes you are right, i also see this as the main problem of our team. But anyhow 
we should actually either find new devs or we have to reduce the codebase that 
is mantainable.

well code per developers gets better - less code lesser bugs -> improve the 
code qualaty. That is actually the idea behind it. For sure one line of code 
is not equal.

I see resources also as "features" from akonadi - so yeah we should also 
reduce the list of supported resources, if we can't handle them.

> Removing codes can be sense sometime but if nobody fixes existing bug it

But we are unable to fix bugs, because we have no time to do that, because the 
workload is to much for each of us - Or Not? I strongly recommend to focus at 
the moment at bugfixing instead of adding new features. On the other hand I 
know nobody, that is not focusing at bugfixing, so how we can impove  the 
situation from our side?

Me and Christian are still busy in fixing bugs for munic. I hope we can 
push/prepare our bugfixes to kdepim at randa. Don't be scared this time it is 
a lot less code, because there are nearly no new feauteres.
