Bug Description
I have been attempting to use KJots for a few years. Each time I try it, I'll use it for a while, and things will look good. Books are correct (in Kolab and Locally), pages are correct, information is correct (with an occasional render bug).
Every so often (it's probably happened 3 or 4 times in the last few years), the data disappears.
I look in the .book file and the data is all there. KJots just refuses to show it.
I am not certain, but it's possible this is happening at a KDE/Ubuntu upgrade. I use it sporadically.
All I know is that the XML is there, and KJots ignores it.
One such .book file starts out like this:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!DOCTYPE KJots>
<KJots>
<KJotsBook>
<Title>
<ID>34</ID>
<Open>1</Open>
<KJotsPage>
<Title>project stuff</Title>
<ID>33</ID>
<Text>
<html><head><meta name="qrichtext" content="1" /><meta http-equiv=
p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }
</style>
<p style="
</KJotsPage>
...
</KJots>
The XML looks valid. What gives? Is there some internal caching that goes on? I currently can create new books and pages, but the old information doesn't show up.

Looking at entries that show up and that don't (on the Kolab server), the following appear to be the biggest differences:
Doesn't work:
<product-id>KNotes 1.7.2, Kolab resource<
Works:
<product-id>KNotes Libkolab-0.2.1, Kolab resource<
and it looks like the older ones don't have a urlencoded BODY.
Example: doesn't work:
<body>$1040 - first hours and computer
+2.5hrs - 6/6
+1hr - 6/11</body>
Example: works:
<body><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN" "http://
<html>
p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }
</style>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:
<ul style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; -qt-list-indent: 1;"><li style=" margin-top:12px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:
... blah blah...
</body>
Did I miss a migration routine? This leads me to believe that the break comes between versions. Are we not caring about backwards compatability??
