Are there any other fields which are present in the Addressee API, but not 
handled in the vcard storage backend? I think the vCard and the binary 
storage have to support all fields which are accessible by the API.

We have to make sure that the locking and the change notification don't get 
broken by this step.

I think we still don't have agreed on how to do this in the best way, but it 
would be very desirable to have this as part of libkabc.

What about a plugin interface for adding things like the kde-common/accounts 
resource from Carsten? I think this would be a very useful improvement as it 
allows to develop outside of kdelibs. Many people seem to be more comfortable 
to develop plugins than contibuting to the core code, so a plugin interface 
could be a nice way of increasing code contributions to libkabc. It would 
also provide a clean way of handling resources in the kabc kcontrol module.

Just add it to the file development-versions/kde-3.1-features.html in the 
developer.kde.org module in CVS.
