"So, you can imagine how many times per week things suddenly break in Thunderbird because a C++ interface was renamed, or an API was deprecated, or a building library was upgraded. And those coders are "constantly changing and improving things on a daily basis." Rebuild the interface from scratch to create a consistent design system, as well as developing and maintaining an adaptable and extremely customizable user interface Ĭastellani set low expectations for the above efforts, because while Thunderbird has "a bit more than a dozen core developers," Firefox has hundreds.Make the code base leaner and more reliable, rewrite ancient code, remove technical debt.Supernova will deliver "A UI that looks and feels modern … aiming at offering a simple and clean interface for 'new' users, as well as the implementation of more customizable options with a flexible and adaptable interface to allow veteran users to maintain that familiarity they love."Ĭastellani also detailed the following "primary objectives" for the next three years of Thunderbird development: Thunderbird is undergoing a massive rework from the ground up to get rid of all the technical and interface debt accumulated over the past ten years." "It's a modernized overhaul of the software, both visually and technically. Da die Upstream-Unterstützung für Thunderbird 78.x jedoch beendet ist, ist es offensichtlich unwahrscheinlich, dass der Fehler jemals behoben wird."With this year's release of Thunderbird 115 'Supernova,' we're doing much more than just another yearly release," Castellani wrote. Darüber sollte Mozilla/Entwickler eigentlich die User in der Community informieren! Eine massive Sicherheitslücke, die die TB 78.x-Serie betrifft, wurde angeblich aktiv ausgenutzt. Yes and I suggest adding the TB fork "" to the PPA'a as an alternative? De/EU: Wird Thunderbird 91 in den Paketquellen implementiert? TH 91 kann "nur" als FlatPack installiert werden, was völlig okay ist! Trotzdem denke ich, dass hier zu TH 78 gewarnt werden sollte! TH 78 hat Bugs und wird nicht mehr supportet.
However, since upstream support for Thunderbird 78.x has ended, it is obviously unlikely that the bug will ever be fixed. About this Mozilla/developer should actually inform the users in the community! A massive security vulnerability affecting the TB 78.x series has reportedly been actively exploited.
En/Brexitania: Is Thunderbird 91 implemented in the package sources? TH 91 can be installed "only" as FlatPack, which is perfectly okay! Nevertheless, I think that here should be warned to TH 78! TH 78 has bugs and is no longer supported.
