CardDAV add-on

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Consider a CardDAV add-on.

Consider to use/ integrate with an existing Open Source CardDAV protocol 
library instead of writing it from scratch.

This would allow to support all the specifications supported by ez-vcard also 
with the CardDAV protocol.

It would also allow to share code when working with vCards _and_ CardDAV 
instead of having 2 libraries working with vCards (CardDAV uses vCard for 
contact data: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CardDAV).

Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll look into it.

[rfc2822]

I'd just want to add that CardDAV is quite a complex topic. To support CardDAV, you MUST fully support WebDAV and a whole bunch of other RFCs (WebDAV ACL, etc.). In my opinion, this should not be part of a VCard library (but can of course be an extra library).

Maybe our WebDAV/CalDAV/CardDAV library https://gitlab.com/bitfireAT/dav4android/ could also be of use for you.

That's why I suggested to "Consider to use/ integrate with an existing Open Source CardDAV protocol library instead of writing it from scratch."
