Alright. So I will move
	kdesdk/kdeaccounts-plugin
to 
	tags/unmaintained/4/kdeaccounts-kabc
on Wednesday, May 23th, in the European evening, unless 
anyone objects.

INHO this does not conflict with any rules of the release schedule, this
submodule simply got forgotten to be removed after the introduction of the 
Akonadi-based plugin variant. Not a perfect time, but better late then never.

Cheers
Friedrich
