No ideas, anyone? I still can't use freebusy. I *think* it might have 
something to do with the interaction Kontact<->kwallet, but that's just a 
hunch. My Kontact simply does not send out the username/password needed to 
retrieve the freebusy information - and it does not ask for one, either, no 
matter what I do... I'll include the original description below for 
completeness.
