Sample Windows contact file with name and email address

Windows has a Contacts folder in the user's "home folder" that contains files
with the extension .contact.  Each file is a single contact's information
stored in XML format.

I'm currently attempting to migrate these contacts over from a broken Windows
install to Linux for a client, but there don't seem to be any tools capable of
converting.  It would be great if kaddressbook supported reading this format.

Here is Microsoft's schema:
