No, at least not currently.  It wouldn't be hard to add, but it would be
rather odd to request a vCard via XML-RPC.

That is neat.  I'm still looking for the same thing in .NET as our
*long* term goal is to provided the zOGI API via a .NET service (runs as
a service on either LINUX or Windows);  the basic framework for this has
already been coded,  but the Logic portion is a non-trivial port. :)

I'm curious if you could to a collection get look through the results to
request each vCard from ZideStore via Python.  There was some GroupDAV
Python code once upon a time.
