Why is paranoia so rampant these days?.

The sky is falling, the sky is falling.... NOT!

Mozarella foundation "gave up" with the SeaMonkey suite back in *2004*
and everyone announced back then that Mozilla was dead.

THEN the *COMMUNITY* of users and Mozilla advocates decided to accept
the challenge and a small group of developers said "fine, we take over
development" and
formed the SEAMONKEY COUNCIL, which has been doing SeaMonkey
development ever since. That´s the beauty of open source, a company
dropping its interest in something doesn´t mean it´s dead.

That´s the guys who have been doing SeaMonkey development since 2005.

The same could happen with Thunderbird.... if there´s parties
interested in keeping it alive. I bet at least some Linux distros will
want to keep it alive. T-Bird is a darn fine lightweight email
client for IMAP, compared to other ´solutions´ like MS-Novell´s "Evolution"
