The lack of sync with google contacts is a real big "minus" for bbdb :
but I still use it over any other emacs solution for contact management.

Possibly the best solution would be a gnus method that talks to
evolution or google contacts directly? From that way it would be
relatively trivial I guess to re-write as bbdb using bbdb methods.
