The Problem With Thunderbird

Thunderbird existed for quite some time in the corporation but no one really figured out how to fund it so Mozilla put it into Mozilla messaging which was its own little house. When I came on it was a couple years after Mozilla had said Thunderbird is still part of Mozilla but we're turning it over to the community to maintain and they hired folks like me with donations that they did have. We grew to be just as we talked about earlier too big to fit maybe in the foundation it was already facing all sorts of operational problems because of how quickly we were growing.
