==== Some thoughts on how to do it ==== | |||
* AB migration only works for LDAP servers. | |||
* Drop all other ABs during migration apart from LDAP ones | |||
* Can we move AB migration into the profile migration code? | |||

*** Netscape 4.x profiles migrated into new TB/SM can only be done by profile migration | |||
*** Netscape 4.x -> Mozilla version x -> latest TB/SM would have the conversion done at mozilla version x stage, or could be done in the profile migration once new SM has new profile location (suiterunner will provide this) - tb already requires profile migration. | |||
** if not, then can we find something that is always called first/make it called first to do the work for us? e.g. nsLDAPPrefsService::migrate? | |||
