Sure. That's why we have the milestone releases before Q3 ;-)

When I read the mail I didn't know any answers. I will read it again...

One thing I had added to the roadmap was the "akonadi Demo Application" 
released with Milestone 1 in May. I think of this as a simple app 
demonstrating how to use Akonadi. This shouldn't have any KDE 4 dependencies, 
so that it only needs Akonadi and can easily be released with it. Maybe this 
app could be used as a first real world test before we have started to port, 
redesign the KDE PIM apps for Akonadi.

What could this Akonadi demo app be? Maybe a simple addressbook, a simple 
calendar app, or a combination of both. Or a simple mail reader for reading 
mailing lists, or a mail notification utility, or whatever. Any more ideas?
