Whoever is going to work on the update, please be aware of the switch from a flat property bag to a vCard storage:
Changes to the WebExtension API:

Description of the core change:
https://developer.thunderbird.net/thunderbird-development/codebase-overview/address-book#transition-to-vcard-storage
The new address book looks like so:
I assume none of the old overlays will apply to the new UI.
Thunderbirds auto discover capabilities for CardDAV did improve, so maybe Thunderbird itself is working for you already and there is not much missing anymore.

No. No specific indications. However their product is:
"SOGomail by Alinto"
Powerful business-class mail Server for organisations that are looking
for a proven European alternative.
And I don't see any indication that they will support Thunderbird. Come
to that support from Inverse was not really enthusiastic in the last
release.
As mentioned our best bet is to work to get most of this into TB itself
or a lightweight addon.

Christian
