Words like "disgusting" are harsh, and I don't like to hear them in reference 
to the effort that the KDE devs have put into their work.

Having said that, there clearly have been teething problems with Akonadi.  
That's because it's a very new technology, and indeed a new idea that you 
won't find elsewhere.  You could argue that they shouldn't have released the 
new version of Kontact so soon, but they simply had to.  How else would the 
bug reports come in?  There was the same problem with KDE 4.0; it was majorly 
buggy, but they had no choice.

It's worth noting when I switched to the new Kontact (which relies on 
Akonadi), I did have a few rough days, but things have certainly settled down, 
and it's been pretty stable for me for months now.  If you're having trouble 
with Kontact, I may be able to offer some suggestions for workarounds or fixes.  
It's mostly corner-cases that are causing issues now, I think.
