Sorry, I shouldn't assume that everybody knows these things. Thank you
Joshua and Emilio for explaining.

Hey Geoff - what sorts of things would be appropriate to file there?
Or perhaps as a more basic question - what *is* comm-central? Is it
'mozilla-central with constantly-rebased Thunderbird patches on top?'
Is it an old fork of mozilla-central where a lot (or very few) patches
are copied across? Some hybrid? I like Thunderbird, and I'd like to
make things easier on you, but truthfully I know very little about how
Thunderbird is made relative to my work on Firefox (and I couldn't
find a document online).

Hi everybody
Many changes to mozilla-central code require complementary changes to
comm-central code. Communication about this hasn't always been
effective, which leads to breakages that could have been prevented, and
wasted developer time.
We now have a dedicated Bugzilla component for alerting Thunderbird's
developers about such things: Thunderbird - Upstream Synchronization.
Please use it to keep us informed of impending changes that we'll need
to deal with.
Thank you to those who do keep us informed. I hope having a dedicated
component makes your life easier as well as ours.
