Category Revision
The goal of the category revision is to help eliminate the confusion associated with the various "Add-On" types. These types may remain but will not be a primary distinguisher of an add-on. The type may continue to be indicated (e.g. on SRPs) but the functionality offering should be the bigger emphasis.

| CAT-2 | P1 | Reclassify all existing add-ons into new categories | ||
|
Here is the general mapping: There will be some "manual work" that will need to happen to classify items in the "Miscellaneous" and "Site-Specific" categories. |

Search Changes

| SRCH-1 | P1 | Visually indicate experimental add-ons in Search Results | ||
| SRCH-2 | P1 | Include title, category and description as valid search terms. SRP can include individual addons (all types) as well as category names or content from the addon description (not just the addon summary). | ||
| SRCH-3 | P1 | Manually review top 50 searches and see if expeced results are shown, otherwise, tweak to include more targeted results. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| APP-1 | P1 | Create staging and production instances of AMO v3.1 for Thunderbird, SeaMonkey and Sunbird | ||
|
||||
| APP-2 | P1 | Remove the "Application Selector" from the current AMO site such that addons.mozilla.org is Firefox only. (We may keep this in the interim). | ||
| APP-3 | P1 | Preserve (as much as possible) the old URL scheme for accessing addons content since people link directly to AMO detail pages | ||
New PHP Platform
Support for PHP4 is going away and we wish to take advantage of new capabilities and performance available in PHP5.
