Yeah the contacts backend does have some issues.  We are working hard on
getting them fixed.

Just a reminder to everyone who is considering testing 16RC1 - it is not
production ready.  Use a cvs update atleast daily, and there is a lot of
activity.  Before reporting a bug run a cvs update to verify that is
still present, also please check that the bug isn't already logged.  We
don't mind comments on exisiting bugs, but it is a little boring closing
duplicate bugs :)

Which version is this? 0.9.16 only uses phpgwapi/templates/idots/css,
HEAD uses css for each tpl set.

Ok, can you log it on the tracker and we will look at it.  Sorry, but
there are too many bugs in 16RC1 for us to remember them all.  If they
are on the tracker we get reminded :)
