That seems to pretty severely handicap the future of Thunderbird,
as we are prevented from doing with money that we raise ourselves
precisely what Mozilla used to do but pulled the funding for.

exactly what I am thinking as well. If the onlyh other choice is to
trickle it back to MoFo, can we rather keep the money in a fund

not sorted out, I think it is rather pointless talking about
distributing moneys...<br>
