Hi Jean Louis,
First i want to thank you for this very detailled explanation, this is very
valuable for someone that start in elisp like me.
Secondly, i found the idea of using sqlite for contacts very interesting, and i
think a lot on this solution on my side the last weeks. With the new emacs
You want a CRM system which to me is a very different creature and much more
complex than a contact manager, meant to lookup fairly static information about
people. HyRolo was built to allow freeform contact management and to
specifically avoid the typical, limiting field-based techniques in co

Hi Jean:
A few thoughts.
1. Although I understand you do a great many things with your
database-backed Hyperscope system and I work with RDBMSes every day, I
don't really see great value in what you have shown in the context of
contact management when compared to the already existing HyRolo or

Hi,
After some search today on the web, like Alan i try to compare all

Those functions which I use most often I can fully replace with the

This question is going to go a little off the original topic. I wonder
how far you can push your model of replacing the org-file with a
database. It looks like it would be easy to extend to something like a
shared bibliography.
How far could you push it for something like a shared set of documents

Thanks a lot for all the replies. I migrated from bbdb to ebdb a long

I've used BBDB for years, and have tried org-contact, but it
didn't seem to scale to the now rather large size of my BBDB
database.
I've looked at migrating to EBDB but as I have many custom
functions I haven't yet made the move.
BBDB can do amazing things. I've mentioned some of them
before. Of

It's ``automatic''. The entry of the person needs a field "anniversary",
if that's filled with a date in -mm-dd format, it's included

I use bbdb (big-brother data base). I use it since a looong time
already, and amassed 15000 or so contracts. It does what I want, it's
text-based, so versioning is not a problem.
I think it can do vcard export (though when I used vcards is a long
time ago, I can't remember if that was smooth,
