The addressbook conduit had to be completely rewritten for kde 3.1 (please
don't ask why a working piece of software suddenly could no longer be
used, that's a different story...). I haven't had any time lately to check
all the different settings in the config dialogbox, since writing the
actual syncing code already took ways too long.

Strange. For me it asks for all conflicting events. What do you mean with
coexist? Are they duplicated or are they just not synced?

KDE 3.1 will have exactly what was available in your tests, because I
couldn't work on KDE for several weeks.

BTW, can you please file bug reports (http://bugs.kde.org, one for each
bug) for all your complaints, otherwise they will simply be lost and not fixed.
