Re: Eudora

Hi,

More information from the QUALCOMM press release:

  http://www.eudora.com/press/2006/eudora-mozilla_final_10.11.06.html

and here (the new Mozilla"Penelope" project -- for the writer
Penelope Fitzgerald?). The project team includes Steve Dorner, the
father of Eudora:

"The "Penelope" project's intention is to join the Eudora user
experience with the Mozilla platform. We intend to produce a version
of Eudora that is open source and based on mozilla and Thunderbird.
It's *not* our intention to compete with Thunderbird; rather, we want
to complement it.
We are committed to both preserving the Eudora user experience and to
maintaining maximum compatibility, for both developers and users,
with Thunderbird. It is our goal to build a single development
community around Thunderbird and Eudora, so that both mailers advance
faster than they previously have."

We are seeking clarification from QUALCOMM regarding our current
support contract.
