Well, first of all (as you asked in 4) the appropriate places for bug reports in SHR is the shr trac (trac.shr-project.org) :) As for what you said: 1. in my POV the contacts app SHOULD NOT restrict the numbers at all. And I think it doesn't do it anymore (latest mrmoku/tests I think we changed that there). 2. same response as 1. 3. same response as 2. 5. same response as 3 :) Enjoy, -- Tom.
