* [http://mozillalabs.com/messaging/2010/12/07/announcing-thunderbird-conversations/ Thunderbird Conversations] released. Thanks to everyone for relaying the news. This has been on [http://lifehacker.com/5708180/thunderbird-conversations-brings-true-gmail+like-conversation-views-to-thunderbird Lifehacker], Reddit, GHacks, and various other websites. Lots of retweets.
* A few comments on Twitter and the blog post. Went from 92 downloads/day to 1500. [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/statistics/addon/54035 Statistics] were initially pretty good, except there hasn't been a significant increase in the number of users as I expected. Low retention rate, I suspect people are afraid of Trunk.
* Lots of bugs reported. Still [https://github.com/protz/GMail-Conversation-View/issues a lot of open bugs]. Managed to [http://jonathan.xulforum.org/files/gcv-nightlies/Changelog_master kill a few], the fixes are in the [http://jonathan.xulforum.org/files/gcv-nightlies/ nightly versions].
* Next: Andy and Bryan have some work to do and a few things to help me on, I think we can aim for a new release maybe before Christmas with mostly bugfixes in, or maybe next year.

==== Communication Channels ====
I (protz) just created a new wiki page [[Thunderbird/CommunicationChannels]] that lists all the communication channels we have. There's also a post on tb-planning. Please make sure you read the page (it's short) an add any items I might have forgotten. Once it's polished enough, we should probably link to this page from the official website, MDN, and other entry points for newcomers.
This tries to answer the concerns raised some time ago on mdat about the lack of communication. Update wanted for [[Thunderbird:Thunderbird_Post_3.1_Plan]].
