I am volunteering to work on this, but I need directions from you guys sinc=
e I=20
don't know all the requirements, especially regarding groupware storage.

The variant in kdepim has quite a lot of comments about hacks only necessar=
y=20
until "KDE4", which means our window of opportunity is closing.

Do we know how "other" PIM frameworks handle distribution lists? Do they al=
so=20

Hmm. In Akonadi a distribution list would be a collection right? Maybe it=20
should be up to the agent how it stores this collection, e.g. extra file,=20
hidden second addresbook, etc
