Funambol 7.1.* Blackberry client

[Tom Malone]

I was poking around on the Funambol discussion boards and I came across 
this posting.

According to the author the next version of the Funambol Blackberry 
client will not support the sif format for Contacts.  It will only 
support vcard.  If you want sif support you will need to recompile the 
Blackberry client.

I have been testing the 7.1 alpha/beta version of the Blackberry client 
and I can confirm that this is indeed true.

Furthermore, according to this post on the developers list sif* is going 
to be phased out altogether.

It appears that the Sync4j driver in Horde will need to dynamically 
determine if the content needs to be converted rather than just assuming 
that the client wants sif.
