Hi. I hope no one takes offense at my question.
Is Seamonkey going to be around for a while? So many software
developers
drop support for their products after a period of time. I'm investing a
lot of time and interest in Seamonkey.
Is it thought that SM will continue to be developed? One can only
remember
Mozilla stopping development on Thunderbird and wonder about the
future of
SM.
Both SeaMonkey and Thunderbird are still in development, although now
as community projects (made up of volunteers).
AFAIK, it's still being worked on, but, I might add, it does require
more contributors (esp. in terms of coding).
As for your initial question "Is SeaMonkey going to be around
for a while", no one really can tell you. We, as contributors,
certainly will do our best to make it be around for a while.

From the standpoint of this 77 year old SeaMonkey user since day one, I
just would like to thank all of you who contribute, have contributed,
and will contribute to keeping SeaMonkey going. I only wish I knew one
tenth as much as you people know about software so all I can to is raise
my glass and shout 'Cheers' and 'Bravo' for your current, past, and
future efforts!
I think I'm a young pup around here, Henrik, at only 58, but I reflect
your comments about the crew that develop SM.
I started, in 1996, with Netscape Navigator V 0.9, progressing to
Netscape Communicator V 7.0 or there abouts, then Mozilla Suite to about
V 1.7.2, then to SeaMonkey V 1.0, I think.
I do my little bit to help the Devs by test running the SeaMonkey Beta
versions as they come out, but I don't think I've found any problems, so
cannot complain at all!!
Keep up the good efforts as long as you Devs can .... at least for the
next twenty years or so, please!!
