Help in this area would be great. Currently import from csv works OK, but 
vCard importing and exporting is not nearly stable and could use a helping 
hand.

Lately I have been the only one working on KAddressBook itself, with a few 
fixes by other folks, and Cornelius Schumacher has been working on libkabc. 
All development of KAddressBook and KAbc is discussed on the kde-pim 
mailing list.

This should be done (I presume you mean the table view?).

This is also done. Different views and different data on each view.

Like I said, this definately could use some help. I'm not sure what 
"Vorspann" means, but I'm sure it could use more items.

I have setup the framework for printing. It is now all in 
KAddressBookPrinter. I quickly implemented printing a detailed card on an 
addressee, but more options would be good. Label printing is definately 
needed.

I definately suggest you get KAddressBook from KDE HEAD CVS. There have been 
some major changes in the past 2 months.

Thanks,
