This page is for discussion of new ideas for new features for Address Book.

If you want to help develop for the address book please see [1] for more information.

Please also enter your sig when commenting against other entries - that way it should make it easier for keeping track of who's commenting where.


Ideas so far:

  • PCSync - we need PCSync-Support to manage contacts with Palm and PDAs
  • Manage Contacts in Trees and SubTrees per Address-Book to categorical the Address-Book-Entries
  • Birthday interlink with optional Calendar (e.g. Sunbird-Project)
  • Opportunity to create new forms (see MS-Outlook 2003 ;-)
  • Certificate GnuPG interlink with optional GnuPG-Plugin (e.g. Enigmail-Project)
  • Quick-Filter for Address-Entries as a ToolBar with Entries A, B, ..., Z (see MS-Outlook 2003 ;-)
    • Is this something like a view list which is actually filtering displayed entries? --Standard8 14:11, 7 Oct 2005 (PDT)
      • Yes. Thats entries where the contact is beginning with A, B, ..., or Z. --Griffin 00:09, 8 Oct 2005 (GMT+01:00)
  • Prevent Double Entries
    • Define "Double Entries"... just the email address the same? or the whole card? Some people want two cards with the same email address. --Standard8 14:11, 7 Oct 2005 (PDT)
      • Double Enrtrie = The same email address. Two cards for the same email address isn't favorable. In Future I hope we have List of email address with the affiliated Display Name. What should one need 2 cards for an electronic mail address still then for? --Griffin 00:12, 8 Oct 2005 (GMT+01:00)
      • 2 different people using the same email address. Though if we do it right, then perhaps it won't be entirely necessary. --Standard8 03:21, 8 Oct 2005 (PDT)
