another very important point is synchronisation. together with salomon sickert we thought about how to solve this problem. basically we came up with the idea of a self-replicating backend, like couchdb. if we then could add support to the contact apps of other computer/devices like a n900 or android, we would get synchronisation and conflict management for free. then there is also the idea of having a webservice for the gnome contacts app, where you can access your contacts over the internet. we are very interested in your opinions about this! daniel On Tue, 2011-04-19 at 10:27 +0200, Alexander Larsson wrote: > On Mon, 2011-04-18 at 09:29 -0700, Travis Reitter wrote: > > http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/telepathy/2011-March/005369.html > > [4] > > This seems to talk about querying contacts from slow social web > services.
