Very much to my regret, I have a track record for making wrong promises 
with respect to this particular issue. First I hoped it would happen 
for KDE 4.1 and said so on this mailing list. Then I put my hopes on 
KDE 4.2. It didn't happen.

During this year's KDE PIM meeting in Osnabrück we came up with a plan 
for porting the KDE PIM applications to Akonadi. For KDE 4.3 we plan to 
port KAddressBook and KOrganizer to Akonadi. Then, for KDE 4.4, we hope 
to port KMail to Akonadi. It is a huge task, so you better don't put 
your bets on it.

Ingo
