* Thunderbird has now been declared non-strategic by Mozilla, and yet as a product has a strong following. To me that means that perhaps the surviving community-based product team may need to propose various governance issues that differ from the strategic products on issues such as monetization, underlying cultural values, and definition of purpose. In what areas is Mozilla likely to be flexible, and where are the hard lines with a product that has in some ways not found a successful home within the existing Mozilla culture? :rkent
* It may be interesting to see if Flash 11.3 issues are discussed. Apparently Adobe are able to influence information we publish in KB articles, and therfore proposed suggestions for workarounds to Firefox issues.(John99)
