RE: Schedule and criteria for FPWD of Contacts API

Dom, all,

I have the same feeling as Richard on this. It is a bit early to push
for FPWD, although it is the one that has been most worked upon.

Regards,
Suresh

Hi Dom,

It would be nice to see DAP moving quickly but I still think we are too
early to publish even FPWD for the Contacts API by Dec 2009. I would
suggest the roadmap be updated to Jan/Feb 2010 for FPWD of Contacts API.

There are a number of items that would benefit from mailing list
discussion before FPWD. I will push these items to the mailing list
today. Perhaps we can pick up this discussion (i.e. FPWD roadmaps) on
our regular conf. call on Wednesday?

Kind Regards,

Richard
