James Just James@thunderbird I just want a really good web browser from you and no extra nonsense.
Wouter Verhelst@wouter @thunderbird I mean Mozilla should not waste money on other things.
@purpleidea @wouter Mozilla is constantly trying to make the web a better place. That's worth the investment.

This is quite a vague mission statement that could include just about any activity. Is Mozilla guilty of mission creep?

@randal Disclaimer: Thunderbird is not technically under Mozilla's umbrella (we are MZLA Technologies) and not does officially speak on behalf of Mozilla.
Just sharing our enthusiasm for what they do.
@Thunderbird Yes, I'm aware of that, and it wasn't a reference to Thunderbird.
@thunderbird @wouter I'd prefer Mozilla just focus their energy and enormous budget on just making Firefox awesome for now. You keep losing so much market share. Fix all the obvious issues first. Stop wasting time on silly things most people don't think are the priority.
@purpleidea
@thunderbird you know that already happened, right? Thunderbird was split off of Mozilla a while ago, they don't get funding from Mozilla anymore. All their funding is now separately handled and donated by people who would rather donate to Thunderbird rather than to Firefox.

@wouter @thunderbird yeah my comments are just about Firefox/Mozilla not Thunderbird it's only in this thread in reply to their initial comment, not about Thunderbird itself.
