Ok, so I've added a function to decode and add MECARD/BizCards, but it's failing to add the contacts to the db. I need to work out whether it's possible to obtain more information from the QtContacts* stuff to work out why (and indeed if using the QContactManager even works under Maemo).

While doing this, I was thinking that it would be useful to let plugins signal the UI/user that they have (un)successfully performed their processing, using e.g. one of those information ribbons.

One option is to let each plugin do its own thing and generate an info ribbon as and when it wishes; another is to provide a slot/signal pair which the plugin can call with a message when it's done (or even while still processing). The latter case would mean we could specify how the messages appear and even keep a record/history, etc.

What are your thoughts Dragly as this would be a slight change to the plugin API?
