I know, i hate opimd the way it is designed now so I'll decided to
make my own storage; however, i know that it should be conformant to
some public and standard API; we'll arrange something in the close
future :-)

It's not the same. Phonefsod is a system daemon that can run outside
the X window system; mokophone is a all-in-one phone applications; it
is actually phonefsod+phoneuid (only the phone and contacts parts).

By the way, contacts use a sqlite database. You can convert a VCF
(multiple VCFs appended into one big VCF file actually) into a
mokophone sqlite contacts db using a python script you may find in the
scripts directory in svn (trunk folder)

I tried for a short time to integrate them, but there were some
difficulties, so I decided to make my own entire desktop environment
:-)
Anyway, since I decided not to integrate mokohome with illume2
natively (that is, using illume2 builtin integration), some things in
the code that could make that working had not been maintained any
more.

Actually using mokowm-imf-ecore package, it is already an input method
:-) but in a lower level than illume keyboard system. Every Ecore
based app can activate the mokosuite keyboard :-)

I'm very glad to see a good reaction from the community :-)
