Lightning: Mozilla Strikes Again
12/28/2004 10:47 AMGiven the growing success of Firefox, a new Mozilla-based
project code-named 'Lightning<
/a>' may be worth keeping an eye on.
Lightning is the working project name for an extension to tightly
integrate calendar functionality (scheduling, tasks, etc.) into
Thunderbird.
[...]
Q. Is Lightning meant as a competitor to Outlook?
A. With Lightning, Mozilla Thunderbird will have a set of user
features that is much more competitive with Outlook, especially in
enterprise usage. The primary goal of Lightning is to provide a
pleasant and productive user experience for both email and calendaring
tasks, largely independent of specific competitors' product plans. If
the result of the Lightning project is an acceleration of users'
migration from Outlook to Thunderbird, though, very few tears will be
shed.
Thunderbird with calendaring features would be very cool.
