New documentation for the Thunderbird Address Book

Mark Banner (Standard8) has been working on Thunderbird’s Address Book component for the TB3 release. (Download TB 3 beta 2 to check it out.) He’s written new documentation that will help extension developers access and manipulate the Address Book:

Address Book Examples: how-tos and snippets

Address Book Interfaces: an overview of the interfaces

These are published in the Thunderbird extension section of the Mozilla Developer Center.
