While I can't say I'm unbiased on this topic, I'd say currently it'll be worth to wait and postpone a full switch. Frg has been working on the WIP branch and when that work is done, that should handle at least a chunk of those JS features frameworks are adopting everywhere. (It should also make it easier to backport more changes, that were made on top of more recent mozilla codebases.) BTW, 2.53.23 will work with Google reCaptcha again. Nighlies already do. The 2.53.23 release is waiting for infrastructure changes that are taking place. (I personally use both SeaMonkey Mail&News and Gnus. I tend to do netnews (including this list via Gmane) on Gnus out of habit and because Emacs can run outside of X11 (while I don't have the terminal connected and in use right now, that was one reason for this). Part of e-mail gets handled through SeaMonkey Mail&News, including two Microsoft accounts with OAuth2.) -- Nuno Silva
