+# Mascarpone CRM
+
+I always write "cream cheese" on my grocery list as "crm chs", so that's what
+I think of when I see "CRM".
+
+## Planned Features
+
+* Local contacts
+* Contacts stored on a remote CardDAV server
+* Act as CardDAV server for other clients
+* For each contact:
+    * Name, address as single fields (plus code? lat/long? go crazy!)
+    * Relationship mapping
+    * Birthday reminders
+    * Desired contact periodicity
+    * Last-contact-time mapping
+    * Additional arbitrary fields
+* Journal with Obsidian-like `[[link]]` syntax
+* Contact groups (e.g. "Met with `[[Brunch Bunch]]` at the diner")
+* "Named in journal but has no contact entry" detection
+* CalDAV server for birthday reminders
+* Email birthday reminders over SMTP
+
