Hi,<br>
<br>
I have created a branch on Folks to propose a more scalable API:<br>

The new classes are only stubs for discussion purposes. The main additions are IndividualList, providing an asynchronously retrieved live view on individuals matching a certain query, and an abstract Query class with some useful subclasses. The intent with queries is to broadly cover a few common cases, keeping the complexity of implementing queries in persona stores under control.</blockquote>
<div><br></div><div>my guess is that specialized query belongs into the client, not into Folks.</div><div>Folks should provide accurate data, the client should provide ways of managing or editing this data, tailored to the use case which the respective client ("app") desires to address.</div>
<div>Case insensitivity and fuzzy search logic are nice features that a client can include as needed, they won't make aggregating contact information more accurate imo.</div></div>
