2008-11-08 Thunderbird Trunk builds
Previous Shredder - Alpha 2 | Current Shredder - Alpha 3 | Previous releases | Mercurial source bundles (mozilla-central & comm-central)
Worthy news from the past weeks:
- Global database (gloda) has just landed, but still has rough edges, exptoolbar (a new toolbar UI) will follow suit soon.
- Eudora 8.0.0b4 has been released.
- There are now at least basic fakeserver tests comprising POP, IMAP, News and SMTP.
- Bugday queries now focused on cleaning up old bug queries. We think the queries encompass all of the old ones in Mail-land and should be pretty comprehensive. Your help is needed!
