Bah.  List got truncated.
-----

1) How do I just get ALL the contacts under the 2.0 API?

  * I already posted an example of this, and I can readily turn something like 
that into a simple compilable project.

2) Given a contact, how do I get all the phone numbers?

  * Ditto above.

3) Given a contact, how do I get all the email addresses?

  * Ditto above, save that for some reason my copy of Eclipse claims that the 
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.CommonColumns class does not exist.  So my 
little sample from the other day doesn't compile for me, though replacing 
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.CommonColumns.DATA with just "data1" makes 
everything work fine.  (Now I wonder if this is a problem in my install of the 
SDK, or if I misread the docs. Hrm.)

4) What sort of identifier should I represent a contact with in my local data, 
so I can later get their most-current data?

  * There was a thread about this on the mailing list, which someone could 
probably boil down into a sample

5) How do I set a contact photo?

  * There were SEVERAL threads on this on the mailing list, which could 
probably boil down into a sample.

6) How do I add a contact to the address book from within an app?

  * There's been at least one vague thread on this, which... maybe can be a 
sample?

7) How do I work with groups? (Create a group, delete a group, get or alter 
group membership.)

  * I don't think there's been a good answer to this.

8) How do I add custom data to a contact?

  * I don't think there's been a clear answer to this.

9) How do I /get/ the nifty status messages and the source for them (a'la 'Away 
for lunch' on 'Google Talk,' or 'eating a pie!' on 'Facebook'), so I can 
display them alongside a contact in my own app? (Alternatively, some ask how 
they can set the nifty status messages and have them appear in the QuickContact 
bar or in other apps.)

  * I /definitely/ don't think there's been a clear answer to this.

10) How do I add an action to the QuickContact bar for a contact?

  * .../or/ this.

11) How do I add an Account type, a'la Facebook, so that I can sync contact 
data in from MySpace/Livejournal/whatever.

  * This one, Dan seems to have taken on.  Kudos to him!
