Yes.

No.

I disagree. We should proceed. And proceeding means releasing once in a
while. It's sad that Sunbird has to go, but repeated requests for a new
maintainer have not sparked a response, so there's really nothing we can
do that would not adversely affect Lightning on the other hand.

>I hope you do not plan to turn off the Sunbird build servers afterwards.

We haven't really spoken about that. But I'd say, that without a future
Sunbird release, it doesn't make any sense to let the build servers
produce Sunbird builds any longer. Those servers could surely be put to
better use of their resources.

Why? There's still Lightning around.
