    akonadi

    Please developers, remove akonadi or at least give the option to let us decide to use it or not.
    A really don't need it and I don't want it.
    Problems and more problems, all of them already posted here and everywhere by other users.

    I need to use kontact, but do not need akonadi.

    Thank's

    Re: akonadi

    I've expressed similar thoughts over at the KDE forums. The thing is that Akonadi, Nepomuk, and all that goes with it are becoming the basis for more functions in KDE. I hate to see how far they will take this, but apparently Akonadi is not going away.

    Personally, I've moved to Thunderbird and Lightning for my PIM needs and couldn't be happier.

      Well that's what I'm gonna do if thinks don't change.
      I have 150 Desktops with kubuntu 8.04 using kontact, I need to upgrade them all to the latest version of kubuntu, about 40% of them are old machines that work very well with 8.04, I don't need to have mysql or akonadi-server or virtuoso or nepomuk on them consuming resources needed for other most important things.

      Could someone tell me for what I need a server (nepomuk + akonadi) to store a dozen or an hundred or even a thousand kontacts ?
      For an enterprise, why do I need also that if all the stuff are on the server side ?

      I want to be free on free software, that's why I choose it.

        Re: akonadi

        I'm sure that if your 150 desktops currently have the KDE PIM loaded on each, then any upgrade would automatically upgrade each desktop to the latest KDE PIM software. Is there no way to remove the PIM on each desktop and allow the desktops to access the PIM installation on the server? I don't want to get into the details of your business, of course, but maybe give that some thought. You can try the KDE forums to see if anyone may have suggestions, but at times they can be quite defensive.

        Hopefully, someone here who really knows what they're doing will have a better idea that I do
