What I had in mind when I mentioned 'integration' was not : making e-d-s the 'only' backend for Tomboy. I do not see any point making Tomboy to use e-d-s a requirement for inclusion in GNOME either.
What I did have in mind was : Ability for Tomboy and EDS to share information - each acting as an *additional* source for the other. I am a heavy user of both Tomboy and the Memos - I _do_ not want every single Tomboy note inside my Memos or under e-d-s. But if the two work together - they do open a lot of interesting possibilities. Just to name a few... * Ideas-capture is best done by Tomboy for me - but while operating out of my calendar/todo list - I always prefer to park a bunch of notes relevant to a given task/appointment inside my e-d-s information space. I would like to able to associate a live reference to the notes rather than a stale snapshot of the notes. I want to read them inside my memos, associate them with my projects and schedule but retain the flexibility of entry/modification via Tomboy). * I have the habit of tracking open-loops with individuals my devoting a Tomboy note for each of them and I look it up whenever I am mailing the person. I would certainly love if a hover on the contact in evolution can bring up my Notes associated with that person.

Then let's move all apps to e-d-s API.
