<p>Thanks & sorry for not referencing the Moz pages.</p>
<p>@Mark<br>
Maybe a List and a Category seems to be equivalent. But, adding
more that one Category item for an AddressCard makes it much more
powerful! Think about yourself as part of different projects, or
some other business or private aspects. Defining that via Lists
isn't that transparent (at least for me <span
class="moz-smiley-s3"><span>;-)</span></span>).</p>
<p>@Magnus<br>
Could you reference a bug or page to link to the status showing if
and how a Category item is implemented with the revised AB?</p>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">With 12 years of more knowledge, I think there could be better ways to
provide similar functionality without necessarily implementing separate
tags, or at least simplifying the overall existing address book
implementation.
For example, if mailing lists are just a group of people, then all you
need is to make the mailing list functionality work properly and provide
better UI for it. You don't necessarily need tags specifically. Though
you could say it the other way around - implement tags and allow mailing
everyone with a specific tag. At the end of the day, they're both the
same type of thing. You don't have your contacts book on your phone
having mailing lists and tags separately, you just have groups.

<p>Hey, yes I was going through some old bugs list trying to get
the the bug list priorities set properly for at least P1-P1. <br>
</p>
<p>Not sure why you link to the TDF wiki. Firefox has the priority
definitions link this:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/bug-mgmt/guides/priority.html#priority-definitions"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/bug-mgmt/guides/priority.html#priority-definitions</a><br>
</p>
<p>Since we have a slightly different setup it doesn't carry over
100%, but we try to follow. For us it's more</p>
<ul>
<li> Thunderbird P1: need/really want to fix this ASAP<br>
</li>
<li>Thunderbird P2: hoping to fix for next ESR.</li>
<li>P3: backlog<br>
</li>
</ul>
<p>For this bug, we would like to fix it but it's unlikely to make
it for 78 since we have many other things to handle.<br>

<p>:mkmelin just changed Priority from P2 -->P3 (without any

<p>I'm unsure what the P2 --> P3 here means. Looking into <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla/Fields/Priority#Priority_Levels">Bugzilla
Wiki</a> there is no numbering. <br>
Maybe Magnus can explain the motivation for the change. Is
this 'only' for editing (UI) a category field or the category
feature as a whole?</p>
<p>There are other promotors on the bug, to name just two of
them: Wayne and Mark</p>
Any further comments?<br>
