- They should start accepting donations (crowdsourcing?) (esp. from professionals and companies whose employees are relying on Thunderbird) solely for Thunderbird development. - They should never ever contemplate and discuss adding ads or anything related to ads as a means for fundraising again. - They should add annual (or so) tooltips (wikipedia style) to point out that fundraising started to finance further development. This is required in my opinion to raise awareness that software development and maintenance costs money.
