Prevent MacDive from picking buddies from Mac Addressbook

It looks like MacDive uses the Mac Addressbook as a source of potential buddies. Is it possible to prevent that?

I'd like to only show those that I've input into MacDive.

Not currently, but I could look at adding a preference to disable that for you. Should be a quick change.

This is done and will be in the next update. Email me if you'd like a beta version to try out.

Sure, that would be cool. I would still be able to update to the latest release version after that, right?

@henrik

you can just disable the access for macdive in the preferences/safety/contacts settings (Mac OS 10.9)

I'll leave the preference in which I think is a "more respectful" way of achieving the same thing, but, that's a cool tip :)
