/**
 * @internal
 * @libdoc The KDE Resource library
 *
 * NOTE: this library is NOT (YET?) PUBLIC. Do not publish this
 * interface, it is in constant flux.
 *
 * The KDE Resource framework can be used to manage resources of
 * different types, organized in families. The Resource framework
 * is currently used for addressbook resources in libkabc and for
 * calendar resources in libkcal.
 *
 * When you want to use the framework for a new family, you need to
 * <ul><li>Define a name for your resource family</li>
 * <li>subclass Resource and add the fields and method that are needed
 * in your application</li>
 * <li>If needed, override the doOpen() and doClose() methods.
 * <li> Provide a configuration possibility for resources in your
 * new family. You can use @ref ResourcesConfigPage to easily create a
 * KControl applet</li>
 * <li>In your application, you can use @ref ResourceManager to keep track
 * of the resources in your family, and you can use @ref ResourceSelectDialog
 * to let the user select a single resource.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * When you want to add a new resource type to an existing resource family,
 * you need to
 * <ul><li>Further subclass the family-specific Resource to implement
 * resource type-specific operation</li>
 * <li>Subclass ResourceConfigWidget to provide a configuration widget
 * for your new resource type</li>
 * <li>Provide a .desktop file so that the new resource type can be found
 * automatically by the ResourceManager</li>
 * </ul>
