Activity based kontact

Fri Mar 25, 2011 1:23 am

Plasma activities become more mature and seem to get more love every day.

And you know what ? It think it would be a kickass feature to have deep activity integration in kontact.

Use case : two activities, one for personnal related stuff and another for work ; two email accounts to keep things seperate.

With an activity aware kontact, if i launch it on the "work" activity, it only displays my kontact work profile/identity, with work related emails, calendar events, etc.

Then i see a personnal email notification : i can choose between ignoring it or clicking on it, making it automatically switch to the related desktop activity.

Some proof of concept of an activity aware app : http://chani.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/c ... aware-app/.
