 My evaluation of 2.0 is that it is somewhat faster as a browser, but,

 TERRIBLY DEFICIENT IN THE EMAIL AND NEWSGROUPS DEPARTMENTS, as people
 have been saying, CONSTANTLY, and the developers JUST SIMPLY REFUSE TO
 LISTEN TO ANY CRITICISM, EVEN IF BASED ON FACT!

Please don't confuse "Robert Kaiser", the most prominent developer, with
 "the developers".

 I'm a developer, even if I don't contribute all that often, and I will
 tell you this: SeaMonkey 2.0's mailnews part is based on a beta version
 of Thunderbird 3.0. When Thunderbird 3.0 is done, the next release of
 SeaMonkey 2.0 will incorporate all the fixes, and hopefully be more
 reliable in that department.

Why is a "release" based on a "beta" ?

Yeah - seems like a bad decision on somebody's part...  -JW

Well, I realize it was an incomplete question as ALL releases are based on "betas" but I think the meaning was transmitted - why is a SM release based on a TB beta where there are as yet unresolved bugs?
