 === Thunderbird ===
+* Thunderbird is string and feature frozen in preparation for the 3.1 release candidates.
+* Checkins are allowed only if:
+** Strings in mail/locales and editor/ui are '''not''' affected.
+** The patch has ''approval-thunderbird3.1+'' (where 'x' is the number of the next release).
+Note: wanted and blocking bugs do '''not''' approve a patch for check in.
+Patches for approval must:
+* Not affect strings in mail/locales and editor/ui.
+* Land on trunk before requesting approval. Preferably to have some time baking before approval is requested.
+* Be accompanied by a risk assessment as to the risk the patch poses and the reason we need to take it for the 3.1 final release.
+Patches are unlikely to be accepted if:
+* They are not affecting security or stability (in the first couple of point releases this may be relaxed by drivers if there are fixes for significant regressions).
+* They are high risk.
+* They have no tests (some patches may be accepted without tests if there is a good reason why there aren't any, and if they can be demonstrated to be well-tested, if you need support for writing tests, please ask in #maildev).
+Please ask on #maildev if you have questions.
