So today I would consider this to be out-of-scope for the oFono project.  We 
really want to concentrate on being the telephony stack and leave the 
peripheral aspects to integrators.  However, I do realize this is still 
largely uncharted territory, so any suggestions you have on how oFono core can 
make your life easier in this space are definitely welcome.

In the end some decision has to be made regarding the storage backend.  
Whether it is MySQL, SQLite, Tracker, EDS, portable black holes, etc.  I 
prefer to leave this to each distribution / platform instead of mandating a 
solution.  In the end we're telephony experts, none of us is an expert with 
contacts or databases.
