Hi,
Here's a bit what we discussed, more on the call tomorrow.

Present: Nico, Volker, Glen, Carl, Aleix
* Status quo
    * Kalendar was created to
        * Be able to support online
        * Be more cross-device (desktop & mobile)
        * TODO Carl will see if it's possible to use Kalendar on
Plasma Mobile with less Akonadi dependency
    * Both Kalendar & Calindori use KCalendarCore
        * They use a different class to base themselves
        * Kalendar is more specifically targetting Akonadi, so to
adopt Kalendar we'll need to figure Akonadi out for Mobile, or make
Kalendar use an abstraction
* Cross-platform
    * Kontact won't be able to integrate Kirigami applications realistically
    * We need to see how e.g. KMail would integrate with Kalendar
* Solutions
    * There's the need for integration APIs that e.g. Itinerary, Plasma needs
* Integrating with apps

* WE WANT TO HAVE A JOINT MOBILE + PIM SPRINT
     * There's rumours about cake and raclette
