few people know that or will understand it; it’s been tarnished by the foundation.

If I were managing thunderbird, I would do a rebrand because I am not the first or last person to make that mistake ; there are tens of millions of me

The journalists who published these articles had an opportunity to educate their readers by not spreading misinformation and by not misrepresenting Thunderbird's relationship to Mozilla.

The issue here isn't the disdain anyone has for Mozilla (although that might be yours). The issue is the misrepresentation of Thunderbird as a Mozilla project by news media.

I am influenced by both and control none, bobbing along the waves of misinformation and mismanagement like a cork in the ocean .
