Subject: Is BBDB really that bad?
Date: 30 Sep 2002 20:57:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3d6qvqp96.fsf@zeus.intra.softace.dk> (raw)
Hi I just tried out BBDB as an addressbook.
I tried 2.32 as that was installed on my system.
By entering my own addres I figured out that many design-decisions was
made under the assumption that we all live in USA. It makes it more or
less useless to me, is that really so?
It stores entries in a lisp-like file ~/.bbdb, has anybody considered
to make an interface to a Relational Databse Management System before?
Can someone say if some of these issues have been resolved in earlier
versions of BBDB?
Jarl
