Re: [dev] Re: Thunderbird - Discussion

[schmi...@googlemail.com]

Hi

I forward you the new adress of Thunderbird with Lightning Sunbird
Calendar
for the OpenOffice suite: http://groupware.openoffice.org/
Please join the OOo-dev mailinglist, until there is an mailinglist
announced, which is for that development.

Tasks:
- check in the actualized code of TB into groupware
- get a team, to get CVS access (who is interested, should announce)

Thanks Michael.

Thanks for your enthusiasm and willingness to help us find a new home for Thunderbird, Michael. I just wanted to remind everyone that we aren't looking at uprooting the project. We work with a lot of different groups in the mozilla code base - thunderbird, seamonkey, penelope, etc. Moving the thunderbird project (CVS hosting, etc) somewhere else wouldn't serve any of us well.

Keep the ideas rolling,

-Scott

so it stays within Mozilla or a subsidiary and the public discussion
was not needed, imho. organzise yourself internal as needed but
internal. Towards the roadmap it is easy: bringing offline and online
communication together. As there is a serverless IM out, a serverbased
IM is nice to have, but not needed or even outdated from an innovative
view - or even for encrypted communication, routing message over a
server is nonsense. So the only question is how to get the retroshare
im protocol core under the hood of TB and how many coders are joining
to help. In which language is the TB gui writtten?
Besides that: a parallel distribution with the OOo package is possible
from your view?

Kind regards.
