We've been having great conversations at the Ubuntu Summit in The Hague this weekend - it's been fantastic to be with so many other open source projects, like @frameworkcomputer @ubports and of course, @ubuntu !

We wanted to give a shout out to @smaury, who found a ReDoS security issue with Thunderbird Appointment. This resulted in us fixing the issue and removing deprecated urls! It's fantastic community contributions like this that makes Thunderbird so much more than the sum of its code. 💙 👏

Let's keep the contributor appreciation from earlier going! Our most recent Contributor Highlight is out, and we're shining the light on Toad Hall, one of our Mozilla Support (SUMO) forum superheroes! The SUMO forums are the pillar of our support, and contributors like Toad keep it strong.

Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:

EDIT: Now updated with ISO 639-1 codes!

Do you speak Croatian (hr), Breton (br), or Scottish Gaelic( gd)?

All three of those languages have slipped under 70% translation for Thunderbird for Android! Normally this would mean removing them from the app. But we're hoping we can rally some translators to help complete these languages - or at least get them over 70% translated!
