Let me rephrase. Are Thunderbird and SeaMonkey committed towards long
term maintenance of their code, should it be moved into
mozilla-central? That is the bare minimum necessary (but not
sufficient) condition for having this conversation.
From what I have seen in the aforementioned forum, it seems like at
least on the Thunderbird side things are pretty much unclear at this
point, so the answer to the above question cannot be yes.
I don't know why the hell you think the answer to that question is
anything other than yes. Kent is a pessimist, and he sees the current
signs as that Mozilla is basically trying to throw us under the bus (and
this current thread suggests that there a few here paying the bus driver
to run over the corpse a few times), so he is highly motivated to find
alternative long-term plans to *continue* the maintenance of
Thunderbird. Indeed, the very fact that we're angling for this change to
happen, despite the rather intense political fight that is ensuing, is
itself a loud voice of commitment to maintaining the code.
