Hi!

After a decade of happily using PalmOS/DateBk (DateBk6) I am
switching my PIM[3] to Org-mode[1]. My vast amount of data is being
converted through jPilot[2] CSV export and self-written Python
scripts.

If someone wants to go the same path, contact me. I am glad to share
my Python scripts. They are currently works-for-me solutions I don't
want to publish (need personal modifications, one-time-shots, German
CSV header, ...). If you are able to program Python a little bit,
these scripts should work well for you too. Even with UTF-8 :-)
