Kontact address book: lots of removed features ?

[tuxolero]

Hi there,

After upgrading to Lucid, the kontact address book looks very restricted, compared to Karmic:

Things that I am missing are:

• List / Table view
• Categories
• Filters

And in the settings, I could not find hot to activate them.

I think this is a large step backward.

Does anybody know if these features have been removed (and why) ?
Or did I just look the wong place for these options ?

Oh, I almost forgot:
At least in the German version, the kaddressbook chapter is missing in the KDE help.

Remove, yes. Why? Developers decided to do so.

Commenting here about likes/dislikes on the differences in package(s) behavior(s) in Lucid vs previous releases isn't productive. Few Kubuntu/KDE developers hang out here in KFN. For questions/comments/concerns about the behavior of KDE applications, you should create an account on KDE Community Forums and post them there. That's were the developers hang out.
