Done
- Network alert
- (Landed)bug 1113466 - Checking CDMA service category to classify CDMA CMAS correctly.
- Keeping the message refinement moving
- (Pending)bug 1144612 - [Messages][Refactoring] Make CSS more efficient by reducing the rule in tag category
- Not all the components are ready(ex:gaia-list because almost every app will need customize it), new styling rules is good for app-wise, but not that necessry for components because the shadow dom is scoped and the performance penalty is mush less comparing the app css. Since UX is positive about using components now, we'll have a plan to create meta for mirating the components.

Story Points, Target Milestone and ETA
Please put story point and target milestone to EVERY ticket that is assigned to you, starting from V2.0 4/28.
For blockers, please also put ETA in whiteboard, format: [ETA:4/30]
Here is how we go:
- 1 point means approximately 2 working days.
- The story point goes up with Fibonacci Number, please use the following number: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 (13 is not recommended unless you really have to)
- Put in whiteboard, format: [p=2]. When you first got the ticket & after a quick estimation.
- The efforts shall include "unit test", "getting review+", "landed".
- When closing a ticket, you may make correction to the p to reflect actual efforts.
- p means "the effort you spent", NOT "how long the ticket is closed". For example, you're assigned a ticket on Monday, but you wait and start working on it Thursday and Friday then done, p should put as 1, not 3.
