This is really rude and disrespectful, borderline violating KDE’s CoC.

FYI, People in KDE will work on whatever they goddamn want. If unpaid volunteers want to work on LabPlot (used in CERN, NASA’s JPL and the University of Manchester that we know of, by the way, so apparently not all that pointless), they will, and you have no say in that matter.

If you have a problem with Akonadi, instead of being so deluded as to thinking you can actually order about people who owe you nothing, my advice is you roll up your sleeves and start helping out.

@RadicalEcologist
I guess for the same reason that you enjoy any of those things: people want to work on it … for free… in their spare time.
Am I frustrated that exchange support is so bad in KMail? yes (mostly because I’m forced to care about exchange support), but in open source that’s kinda the deal.

Also, I’m not sure the people that would work on statistics software are the same as would work on Kalendar😃
