Exactly.

Yes, maybe. But everyone who is developing (or even compiling) pim 
applications outside kdepim still needs the whole kdepim module (and will 
typically compile everyting because hardly anyone bothers about configure 
switches for the libraries (s)he depends on).

And if weuse kdepim/libs, we need to change our module depencencies policy 
to "any module can also depend on the kdepim module". Otherwise any 
application that wants to use the addressbook or the calendar or their 
resource frameworks can only be in kdeaddons....
