But the developer can only take software so far without releasing and
getting some real feedback. Yes, its not perfect yet, but we'll get
there. While certain decisions around KDE4 development should have been
done differently, I think overall it has been shown that it was worth
it. Hopefully we'll get to the same stage with PIM - if the devs listen
to the users who are saying "its not perfect, abandon it all now"
imagine where we will end up.
Aaron is trying to reason with them anyway, and he raises some good points.
But on the topic of actual KDE SC 4.4 PIM experiences, I personally find
it quite usable - but I'm not a big time PIM user.
I was able to migrate my kaddressbook contacts to akonadi/nepomuk, and
that works fine. All the features that I need at least are available,
and a few extras like Google syncing.
I was unable to migrate my korganizer calendar. But it still works, just
based on the old-style storage.
I don't use Kmail so can't comment on that.
I don't see any significant slowdowns relative to previous KDE SC's.
Akonadi / nepomuk does spawn quite a few threads, but seems to run
quietly. I have strigi disabled because it was stressing my laptop HD a
little too much.

Hello,That comment thread is pretty familiar - it looks a lot like the
is there already somebody that tested or uses the PIM (personal information
manager: kontact, kmail, korganizer, akregator, etc) in the upcoming openSUSE
11.3? I think that OS-11.3 comes with KDE-4.4 Because this version uses
more
of the nepomuk features it (that is the PIM suite) might be slower. I'm
curious to kde-4.4 pim experience.
This user is not too happy about it:
