My apologies if that sounded a bit harsh. My view point is that of a
user: which use cases does it satisfy? Can it be installed without too
much trouble? Is it production-quality?

These are the goals that I have with the stable SyncEvolution releases.

There are no binaries with Akonadi support, if that's what you were
looking for. It is too early for that.

http://saidinesh5.wordpress.com/2010/08/24/are-we-there-yet/ points
towards the source code repository where Dinesh does his work:
http://gitorious.org/~saidinesh5/meego-middleware/saidinesh5-syncevolution

The HACKING document contains some general hints about compiling
SyncEvolution and Dinesh describes specific steps for the Akonadi
support in his blog post.

So if you have time, I suggest that you give compiling it a try, then
try it out and work with Dinesh to address any of the known (or unknown)
gaps.
