What's the best way to use addressbook entries across multiple
machines? Ie: if I want to refer to a given addressbook entry on
machine A and machine B by some unique identifier... is the
Addressbook Unique ID portable from machine to machine? Or would it
be better to just use the person's name and do a search on both
machines for the entry? Or would it be better to store the whole
vcard in my file for transportation back and forth (ick) Or would I
have to force my users to use ldap? (Something I'd rather not do)
The Unique IDS are actually CFUUID's they are globally unique, but
there is no guarantee that the same record on both machines will have
the same uniqueId. (This will probably never happen, unless the
database was copied from one machine to another)
