RE: [Phpgroupware-developers] Palm conduit for addbook

[Brian Johnson]

I think they're mostly like that ... but I think there will be problems in
some specific areas

The whole concept uses a db table to match record ids from phpgw to the
palm.  So any new way to get info from phpgw would still have to get the
record id from phpgw.

A db table to match records would still be needed

One SQL function gets the current sequence value from the phpgw table when a
new record is added from the Palm - any modification to this system would
have to have a way to supply this as well

The rest is basically finding records based on their record id number and
comparing fields

The categories add some complication - but not too much - either they match,
or I dump them into Unfiled
