 ===== Thunderbird Conversations =====
-Huge row of bug fixes, released and pushed b2 to AMO, waiting on more feedback before doing a last batch of bugfixes and release the final 2.0 version. All the major changes have been pushed to later to allow me to focus on polishing and stabilizing. Help is welcome, as usual :-).
+Final polish, locale fixes, 2.0 is released, I'll blog about it when 5.0 is announced. A few bugs on the Thunderbird side are about to land, need some action on my side ([Bug 662792] Thunderbird (too) aggressively marks messages as read after display, [Bug 611458] Add Ability to Print Summary of Collapsed Threads in Message Pane). These will improve the interaction between Conversations and Thunderbird. Please do report any issue you see on the GitHub bugtracker!
 ===== Compose in a tab =====
-Cleaned up and submitted a new version to AMO, hopefully approved this time (three rejections in a row). I think I'll try to have it public and keep it "as is" before we reassess the priorities and how that fits in the larger plan.
+Thread on tb-planning summing up the issues, gathering various opinions and feedback. I'll probably try to bundle compose in a tab + another editor see if the integration goes better.
