The main tool of thunderbird-drivers is a rough prioritization of bugs done with a couple of flags:
; Blocking: bugs a bug that we think , if it were the last unfixed bug, we would actually hold a release for, rather than ship without. Note that as new information appears and time passes, this implies that fixing the bugs that are considered blocking+ are likely to change. If you think a specific bug is likely to be important enough that we shouldn't ship without it, please nominate it to block worth the time-value of not having the rest of the appropriate release. Do keep in mind, however, hands of end-users for that there are many more desirable bugs features than can possibly be shipped in any given releasemuch longer.
; Wanted: a restricted set of things that thunderbird-drivers think would be nice to have, but that we would be willing to ship without. Because Note that wanted- doesn't mean that wewouldn'd like driving to be t accept a low-touch process, patch; it means that we'd generally discourage people from requesting re not actively devoting any energy in trying to get this into Thunderbird 3. Note that as new information appears and time passes, the bugs that are considered blocking+ and wanted flags directly+ are likely to change somewhat.  Do keep in mind, also, that there are many more desirable bugs & features than can possibly be shipped in any given release. A particular bug not making the cut for this next release doesn't necessarily mean it's not important, though but it currently is allowed_does_ mean that thunderbird-drivers feels that there other are bugs that are even more important to devote some of our limited resources to.
