Hello all!

I've made the discovery, thanks to some quick posting by users on the
tracker, that the new version of iTunes that Apple has just puches,
version 8.1, changes the underlying operation of iPhone backups in
such a way that the current release of calllog2ical no longer works.

I fixed this bug yesterday by ripping some of smelly code out of the
script and re-implementing name lookups to use the local Apple Address
Book.app instead of the iPhone's backed-up addressbook. I'm going to
release this as a version in a day or two when I get confirmation from
the user-complainant on the tracker, but for now if you're adventurous
you can pull the calllog2ical.rb script off the trunk and try it
yourself.

I haven't had a problem, it should be fine.
