Given that we will likely be re-writing the entire address book,
information will "likely" have to be exported from the old address book
and imported to the new version. I haven't had a chance to discuss this
with Peter, but it may be possible for him to create a conversion
utility that will preserve books as they were in previous versions. We
are nowhere near an answer on how this will work, but we are aware of
the need to port the old data to the new format with minimal, if any,
"structure" loss. By "structure", I am referring to the fact that
exporting from the current address book does not preserve the separate
books and simply exports one long list of addresses.
