Making an app depend on other apps will make it difficult for people who
do not want/use the other app. For instance we're removing Evolution
from our systems because we want Thunderbird to be the default mail
client and do not want to confuse users with yet another mail client
(that needs to be supported). That means we can't use sflphone's
addressbooks. And we can't tell sflphone to use Thunderbird's address
books...

The best solution (IMHO) would be to have a separate application that
would provide only address book functionality that would be used by
Evolution, Thunderbird, OpenOffice, sflphone, syncs with mobile devices
etc etc. Lacking such an application (I'm not aware of one & would be
happy to hear about it!), I guess the 2nd best option would be to have
an import/export function and implement address book functionality
within sflphone.

My two cents...
