don't think I mix up things here.
maybe I was just not clear enough in stating that plasma/kde workspace
alone (without akonadi/nepomuk/strigi...) is not of much functional
difference than xfce/icewm/razor-qt or anything else which does not
provide native mail/contacts/calendars etc.
Now I don't get what you complain about. If the environment does not
provide calendar integration you complain. If it does provide the
integration you complain because of the used technology to get this
integration.
Sorry, but that doesn't make any sense. Either you want or you don't want
integration.
I don't complain.
I just state what is provided by current projects, and what is not.
and yes: I want integration.
but not at the cost of having to run mysql servers on my single user desktop
which proved more than once to be an unreliable beast and whatnot.
and I'm not alone with this experience.
mailinglists/forums are full of posts from frustrated users who have been
bitten.
exactly that is where trinity comes in: provide the well known, rock solid,
snappy, lightweight, easy to maintain/backup kdepim from kde 3.5 on modern
distros - well integrated with the rest of the DE/applications.
