An LDAP to CardDAV phone book (1 way read) gateway for modern (business) phones.

## Use case

Most modern (business) voice phones have the capability to do comfortable LDAP directory look-up like:
10
11
  - Directory search by alphabet letters
12 25 Jörg Ebeling
  - Reverse lookup for in- or out-bound calls
13 1 Jörg Ebeling
  - Reverse lookup by entering parts or the phone number

15 15 Jörg Ebeling
Unfortunately, most of the 'smaller' companies (i guess companies beyond 100 employee) don't have an 'enterprise' LDAP directory, much less than private persons.  
16 25 Jörg Ebeling
Most of such companies do have something like a cloud address-book, often based on WebDAV / CardDAV (i.e. Nextcloud, Ownlcoud, Baïkal, Daylite, ...).  
17
This is, where this gateway might make your live easier.

If this program get started on some kind of hardware (Linux, Windows, MacOS, Raspberry Pi, ...), it will do the following:

22
3.  Ask your local database cache for the LDAP requested phone-book entry
23
4.  Response with the matching CardDAV contacts, as LDAP results to your phone.
