Interview: Tobias König about the development of Akonadi

kubuntu-de.org has an interview with Tobias König regarding Akonadi, the new personal information storage facility for KDE 4. "At first the most important: Akonadi is not a groupware server! In contrast, Akonadi is an intermediate storage and abstraction layer for PIM data. This is similar to Phonon, for multimedia or Solid for hardware. Akonadi abstracts the access and maintenance of data for the rest of the system (i.e. the address book or the calendar). This is achieved by offering a common interface for all the data."
