Funny, the guy Lu Cheng is my friend and he screwed up my BBDB once
:-).
I keep two copies of BBDB, one at home and one at work. I have used
"emerge" to merge them a few times. It worked reasonably well. After the
merge, do (bbdb-resort-database) to find duplicates. Keep the originals for
a while in case something went wrong and was not detected immediately.
There was some discussing about using EDB as a backend for BBDB.
This would solve the multiple databases and merge problems as well as
providing other useful functionalities. Anyone has further thoughts on
that?
