The Thunderbird Council continues to steward the project, and the team guiding Thunderbird’s development remains the same. We remain committed to creating amazing, open source technology focused on open standards, user privacy, and productive communication. Thunderbird’s focus isn’t going to change. The move will allow the project to collect revenue through partnerships and non-charitable donations, which in turn can be used to cover the costs of new products and services. Moving to MZLA Technologies Corporation will not only allow the Thunderbird project more flexibility and agility, but will also allow us to explore offering our users products and services that were not possible under the Mozilla Foundation. Now, to ensure future operational success, following months of planning, we are forging a new path forward. But in recent years donations from Thunderbird users have allowed the project to grow and flourish organically within the Mozilla Foundation. There was a time when Thunderbird’s future was uncertain, and it was unclear what was going to happen to the project after it was decided Mozilla Corporation would no longer support it.

This will not impact Thunderbird’s day-to-day activities or mission: Thunderbird will still remain free and open source, with the same release schedule and people driving the project. This move has been in the works for a while as Thunderbird has grown in donations, staff, and aspirations. Sound interesting?

Screenshots from different operating systems Despite the separation, Firefox and Thunderbird still work together, but allow the developers of each group to have their own milestones and target dates.

This separation has also allowed both groups to clean up and tighten the code in the individual code trees. By diverging Firefox and Thunderbird from the monolithic Mozilla code, both 'trees' could be developed (and bug fixed) at a more rapid pace than before. So where did Thunderbird come from? Just like Firefox, Thunderbird is actually a fork in the original Mozilla codebase. Like Mozilla Firefox, which has been steadily gaining more press and acceptance as a better web browser, Mozilla Thunderbird is shaping up to be a better mail client.

Most of you have used either Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, Netscape Communicator, Mail.app, or one of many e-mail clients.
