Forum Moderators: phranque
The Mozilla Foundation, which last year flagged its intention to push Thunderbird out of its nest, reckons it's identified possible new homes – including itself.
In a report provided to Mozilla by Simon Phipps, the Software Freedom Conservancy and The Document Foundation are named as possible hosts for the project. Phipps suggests Thunderbird could only remain under the Mozilla Foundation under an unspecified “new arrangement”.
The Mozilla Foundation has long been concerned that Thunderbird needed resources better spent on Firefox, and late last year made it clear it wanted the software to survive on its own.
