I blogged about this http://www.alexhudson.com/blog/2007/07/26/#thunderbird , primarily because I hack on http://www.bongo-project.org/ and would love to see Thunderbird really take advantage of some of the stuff our server can/could do. Primarily, I think Tbird has to become relevant to business users, even if just small business people, and it seems to me the obvious way to create a product which might generate revenue. | I blogged about this http://www.alexhudson.com/blog/2007/07/26/#thunderbird , primarily because I hack on http://www.bongo-project.org/ and would love to see Thunderbird really take advantage of some of the stuff our server can/could do.

== A new vision and roadmap for Thunderbird. == | |||
1. adding sunbird lightning calendar to Thunderbird installer by default | |||
2. Integrating serverless Instant Messenger retroshare.sf.net to Thunderbird | |||
3. Creating a adress book in Thunderbird, which has: emailadress, retroshare-key fields for each contact (copy out line). | |||
4. creating the online-contact box in the left menue as a contact list for Thunderbrid email, users are offline or online and can be messaged or emailed. So there is no need for a buddylist, it is just the contacts adressbook of Thunderbird, which appears in the write Window and under teh folders in the main window left. | |||
5. Make a Thunderbird wizard, which picks up email-pop, retroshare cert_user.pem file OR creats an account for retroshare serverless IM. | |||
These five steps to a new Thunderbird future combine both: | |||
- online and offline communication | |||
- Instant Messaging and Email | |||
- serverless (new jabber-retroshare) and serverbased protocols (email) | |||
- a new general interface to internet communication on the desktop. | |||
If no new roadmap is done for Mozilla, let´s do it for openoffice. | |||
A team could performed with all the developers of | |||
Thunderbird, sunbird, and retroshare and maybe openoffice-developers. | |||
BTW, there was an announcement, that 50 chinese developers invest in OOo, | |||
so why no getting support here as well. | |||
