"But Evolution is a buggy piece of crap. It cannot ever manage to close
properly and doesn't shut down programmes that it starts up either. Like
I really need a bunch of random Gnome programmes running after I close
Evolution."

I don't know.  I don't use evolution.  :)  Just thought that was funny,
and relavent.

Lightening would be interesting to look at.  I think perhaps the tight
integration of Firefox, Thunderbird, and Sunbird followed by a
standardization of the interface to Gecko and then a split-up of Gecko
from Mozilla so that it becomes libgecko would be a great path for
Mozilla upstream to take.  The old Mozilla suite is depricatable now; a
modular but well integrated suite based off the new technology is
appropriate.

Of course, that's all fantasy.  For the moment, Firefox + Thunderbird
are an interesting pair.  Sunbird seems to be drawing attention, and
Lightening may very well grow to be a full featured suite like Evo.  I
personally would rather see that path pursued; I don't know about the
rest of the community.
