Our only chance of keeping SeaMonkey alive at all was to reduce the

You do have a very valid point.

My concern is, it works both ways. The other side of the coin is, since this is a volunteer venture, how can we hope that in x number of years, the new volunteers will not consider the present code "unmaintainable"?

Given all this, I marvel at the fact, at a time when some people just make outrageous amounts of money by being (too) smart with other people's hard earned money, some volunteers dedicate time to Seamonkey.

This puts my reluctance with SM2 in perspective and I wish I had the technical ability to contribute better and more efficiently than by occasional posts ...
