apple address book

Hi,

I got your email off wikapedia. I am wondering if it is
possible to  
get my apple address book to work with open office.

Thanks

Stuart

If you just need to import Apple Address Book data, here are
some notes 
on doing that with NeoOffice.  The same steps should work
for OOo.

Obviously a bidirectional iSync compatible scheme is needed
(presumably 
that will come out of the GSoC effort).

I wonder whether Plaxo could be interfaced with OOo easily.

Perhaps by syncing thru the Mozilla addressbook:

If you have a LDAP server (there are open source solutions
of course, 
and one is included with point-and-click admin in OS X
Server), then 
Address Book can use that, as will OOo.
