- 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. (If you want "free", go to Google & co. and
trade-in your privacy, have fun.)
