==== 23 May 2006, Drag and Drop Fix ====
For latest news keep an eye on the [http://planet.mozilla.org/ planet.mozilla.org blog feeds] or more specifically [https://blog.mozilla.org/standard8/ Mark's] and [http://quetzalcoatal.blogspot.com/ Joshua's] blogs.


Yesterday I checked in a [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35837 patch] to trunk (SeaMonkey 1.5a/Thunderbird 3.0a nightly builds) for Drag and Drop within address book. This greatly improves the current drag and drop functionality. In particular, mailing lists can now be correctly moved between address books. It will hopefully make its way into the branch in time for SeaMonkey 1.1a and Thunderbird 2.0a once its had a few days on trunk.
== Roadmap & Work In Progress ==


Please file any new bugs (there are still some drag and drop issues) in the "Core" product under Component "Mailnews: Address Books"
The [[MailNews:Address Book RoadMap|roadmap]] isn't always detailed but gives a general short to medium term outlook on where the address book is heading.


=== Roadmap & Work In Progress ===
The roadmap also gives some idea of the work currently in progress. We try to predict where something will land, but it doesn't always happen due to developers needing to work on other things.

Unfortunately, we can't give timescales as time available for developers is limited.

==== LDAP Alpha Schema ====
=== LDAP Alpha Schema ===


Before Thunderbird 1.5 and SeaMonkey 1.0 we made some changes to the Address Book to allow more flexible attribute mapping. Additionally, the some of the default attributes changed, so we've put together an alpha version for the Mozilla Address Book schema find it here: [[MailNews: LDAP Address Books#LDAP_Address_Book_Schema_-_Alpha_Version|LDAP Address Book Schema]]

==== LDAP c-sdk upgrade ====
== Wish List ==
 
We've just updated (2006-04-07) the [[Directory| LDAP c-sdk]] used by address book on trunk projects (Thunderbird 3.0 and SeaMonkey 1.5) to version 5.17. This may make it to Thunderbird 2.0/SeaMonkey 1.1 if no problems are reported with the upgrade.
 
Please test it if you can.
