I do wonder sometime whether bbdb shouldn't be rewritten to just use
standard vcard fields, modifiers, etc, and possibly even to store all
it's records in vcard format in the first place (I understand that the
latter might not be at all practical).  The one big annoyance with
bbdb is that it is never as easy or automatic as I think it should be
to import and export vcard files to synch with my cell phone (and I
wouldn't be at all surprised if this is the reason that some people
"move away").  I manage it, but I always end up having to remind
myself of the various steps and I still have to do a fair amound of
hand editing.

But I still really like bbdb and I am very dependent on it.  I don't
use all the features, but it's the only way I know of to manage
contact information in my favorite operating system, emacs.  (c;

So thanks very much for your work on bbdb.  I'm imagine that there are
far more bbdb users out there than you know.  Well, at least I hope
that there are.
