Thunderbird
- 5.0 beta (second build) should be out this week.
- 3.1.11 should also be out this week.
- We've added the "5.*" version for Thunderbird to AMO, and need addon authors to check that they're compatible.
- Please check this blog post for more details.
- We want to use the same compatibility bump mechanism as Firefox eventually, but we're not ready for that yet.

Speakers
The limit is 3 minutes per speaker. It's like a lightning talk, but don't feel that you have to have slides in order to make a presentation.
