State of the art of Bi-directional sync for BBDB and other contact apps

2012-03-10 Thread Sriram ET.
Hi, I am trying to determine there is a recommended utility that does
bi-directional sync between BBDB and any of the other popular contact apps
like Outlook, Gmail, Apple Address Book, etc.?

I see a number of export and import, which is typically uni-directional.
Just checking what is out there, before I think of any heavy
self-customization.

Thanks,
Sriram

I've wanted this also for a while.  Unfortunately, from what I've seen
searching Google, what we want doesn't (yet) exist.  (Though I'd love to
be corrected.)

I have also been considering how to do this for a while, but have not
found a way. I am currently considering using 'lookout.el' [1] to import
my contacts to bbdb, but I don't think export is possible, so this would
be unidirectional only. Even so, I'd be curious to know if there is any
better / other option for contacts import?
