I have to agree with Luke, ever since the kaddressbook moved using Akonadi, it
has caused tons of wasted working hours. Apart of being terrible set of feature
regressions, it's either screwing up the mysql database, not starting with
broken NFS locks, somehow screwing its own configuration - one day it works and
on another everything just disappears. Not to mention that the config dialogs
aren't really a text book example.

Don't get me wrong, ever since I first heard about Akonadi I thought it's going
to be the most important improvement for KDE. And in some way it is. But how
it's implemented, just undermines every good goal that it's trying to achieve. 

At the time being, we have just gone backwards in everyhing that Akonadi
touches. Can't say that I'm waiting kmail's akonadi support.
