@thunderbird @kariboka The idea that Thunderbird should be part of the Mozilla Foundation, even if financially separate, raises concerns about centralisation. This arrangement could jeopardise Thunderbird’s ability to innovate and respond to its unique user base.

A fully independent entity would allow Thunderbird to focus on its specific goals and challenges without being influenced by the Mozilla Corporation’s broader priorities. This separation could promote greater agility, creativity and responsiveness, ultimately benefiting both products.

By establishing Thunderbird as a distinct organisation, it could better harness its potential and build a stronger community around its vision. A decentralised approach would promote innovation and ensure that each project could thrive on its own merits, rather than being constrained by a centralised structure.

That is my opinion, my own personal opinion, and I’m totally against centralisation.
