The KDE addressbook
================================================================================
If you want kab to be extended, please send a mail to me. Also 
contact me if you want to comment some of the features mentioned 
below. Send the mail to mirko@kde.org
Thanks.
PS: I am still looking for volunteers who try writing the import filters. 
    Most often I do not have the different other addressbook programs myself.
PS1: This TODO list deals with tasks to add to the KDE addressbook
application. If you want the library to be extended, read kdelibs/kab/TODO.

 automatic menus for kmail and ktalk
 [done for HTML] add export methods -> a matter of the applications
 add import methods:
  - Netscape messenger
  - Microsoft outlook
  - bbdb
  - Pine
  - Corel 8 - Suite address book

  - what else?
 [done] better dialog to enter the birthday, especially directly
 [done] some functions in the main display, like clickable parts 
  (email/talk addresses, possibly telephony support?),
 configurable sorting order (already prepared)
 create and add Max Berger's Outlook importer tool
 add telephony support where the telephone number is automatically dialed
  using the modem, the user can pick up his telephone after the connection 
  is created
  HELP WANTED: Does anybody know how to do that?
 send mail to a bunch of people at once using the keywords and the search 
  functionality. 
 [done] IMPORTANT: Possibility to use different files and, most important, 
  common addressbooks for different people.
