I just thought I'd post a quick message about my work on the addressbook conduit.
If you currently find the contacts/addressbook conduit unreliable, buggy or just incomplete, read on. There are two relevant patches at present: * category support for addressbook conduit, and fixing the first-name/last-name split bug. This patch is attached to bug #201167 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201167) and has been awaiting review since October 12th. * various changes to fix several data loss and data corruption bugs in the addressbook conduit. I have for a long time had problems where phone/email fields would lose data, get reordered, get duplicated, etc., and the conduit was generally unreliable. I have, I believe, fixed the majority of these bugs and I submitted a bug report and patch to the Evolution bugzilla (bug #556061 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=556061) on October 12th, but it has not yet been accepted. The reason is that there is a possibility of side-effects outside the addressbook conduit (these could certainly be fixed if they arose). If you need these bugs fixed, please feel free to comment on the above bug reports to let the Evo maintainers know that these bugs are real and are affecting users.
