No. Not a stupid question at all. In fact, it's a very good question.
I am quite confused that there a nightlies with version numbers
increasing to 2.48 while there is not even a beta.
I wish there was an easy way of explaining this. But, as Paul
stated, we're just a bunch of volunteers trying hard to maintain

like to take any risk of losing my data and mails by using a buggy

and Thunderbird which have been published in the meantime and therefore
I'm concerned about unfixed vulnerabilities in Seamonkey.
Any hope?
Sure. I'm (my opinion here.. doesn't reflect the opinion of the

Edmund,
A good explanation.

trend is not in our favor!
