Is this something we want to do? Don't know, I'd expect that in the future we'll use the dataengine for Plasmoids. Other apps might want to use Akonadi directly, or maybe the kabc lib will be rewritten to use Akonadi. That's more a question for the PIM list though, I simply don't know enough about it. > Also, does this dataengine use/require the akonadi server or this is used > as a server to "the outside world?"

There are libs for it in KDE PIM. -- sebas http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org | GPG Key ID: 9119 0EF9 _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
