Oh, God, I saw the bugs you filed. I really, really like what they are doing 
with Akonadi, and I would love to see Akonadi make adressbook sharing 
possible, but please, don't let the users be testers.

I don't like the way this is going. We deployed Kubuntu at the workplace, and 
nobody likes it if things that worked before do not work anymore, even if they 
are small.
