Changes
(numbered for convenience only, not in order)
- The new mail notification system will now ignore folders with the following flags: Drafts, Queue, SentMail, Templates and Junk. This is bug 661239 which I believe will land in TB 6
- tabbar background blocks lightweight theme image (with personas add-on not enabled - bug 573660 - Narrowly missed TB 5, I believe this will land in Thunderbird 6
- Clear Type and Direct2D preference changess - for full details refer to RSX11M's excellent summary of the prefs: gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.gamma, gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.enhanced_contrast, gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.cleartype_level, gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.pixel_structure, gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.rendering_mode
- Characters outside the default code page becomes ?'s when importing Outlook mail - bug 207156 which I believe landed in Thunderbird 6

(in no order, numbered for convenience only)
- Standard8's Thunderbird bugzilla rapid release tracking page
- excellent, unofficial Thunderbird 6 page from MozillaZine compiled (mostly) by the super helpful volunteer contributor RSX11M
- Thunderbird 5 Support Issues
- the above are great for Thunderbird changes, but open question: how do we track gecko changes that surface themselves to the user in Thunderbird?
