Sync with gnome releases

[Michael Fair]

Thanks for the kvp explanation, that helps me understand
more about how the data is currently laid out.

In the first post, I iterated what I see as the 5 "types"
of users in regards to the address/contact management
problem and what I saw as their needs/resolutions are.

Would you say this list is complete?  I think the that
numbers 1 and 3, and 4 and 5 could be consolidated as
essentially the same thing.  What's your opinion?

1) Home/Business users who are single users, do not
    care about data sharing, and do not have/want
    Evolution will use the home grown modules.

2) Same as 1, but do have Evolution can use the
    "Use Address book module from Evolution" option.

3) Multiple users who do not care if the data is
    available to other applications can use a GNUCash
    controlled SQL backend (probably as another few
    tables in the already existant GNUCash database).

4) Single Users who desperately want multi-application
    data sharing use a generic LDAP client, or SQL
    client module.  This module has the added management
    overhead that comes with having to outsource the
    data storage, but this is OK because they asked
    for it.  (I am on of these guys and prefer the SQL)

5) MultiUser installations who desperately want
    multi-application data sharing can use a beefier
    version of option 4.  Again more overhead, but
    again, they asked for it.
