Description Patrick Ohly 2012-10-12 13:07:51 UTC
The API implements in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) use cases around
contacts:
- cache address books from peers (primarily phones connected via Bluetooth)
  in local address books
- provide a unified address book that combines a configurable (and changing)
  subset of the local address books
- fast phone number lookup
- browsing and searching in the unified address book

Tasks that are expected to be done by the user of this API:
- identify peers and their capabilities
- decide how and when peer data should be cached
- define which data goes into the unified address book

In other words, the API provides the mechanisms and the user the
policy.

This is a meta-issue that tracks the initial definition and development of that API in SyncEvolution. The corresponding public discussion is here (please use gmane's "reply" feature to join the mail thread):
