From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm missing a lightweight (not like Thunderbird) contacts app, that can work with CardDAV and allow me to see, search and edit my contacts.
vCardStudio is pretty nice GUI wise but the backend could be more robust, it doesn't read all my files.
What's wrong with
gnome-contacts?For me gnome apps are not "lightweight" and work fine only all together (Evolution + gnome-contacts + other gnome tools)
You don't need evolution for gnome-contacts and I'm not sure how much more lightweight a contact app can get. It literally does nothing but list and edit contacts, and works with dav via gnome-accounts.
