There's one question which is critically important and hasn't been
answered yet:<br>
<br>
How long will Mozilla, using paid staff, maintain Thunderbird?
"maintain" meaning:<br>
<ul>
<li>Releases: security updates, and every few months a release
from trunk (new features)<br>
</li>
<li>Fix breakage caused by Mozilla platform changes</li>
<li>Fix important bugs</li>
</ul>
<p>? How many years? As long as there are more than half a million
users? *</p>
<p>* (And please don't hide Thunderbird project and download links
or similar - as mozilla.org already does, unfortunately).</p>
