> In turn Thunderbird will ensure the app is developed further. As a first step Thunderbird hired the current K-9 Mail maintainer, cketti (coincidentally, also the author of this blog post ). Hopefully, more will follow soon.

I mean they are putting resources toward it by hiring the main dev which is a good start.

The highlight was about Mozilla the org not being involved. The Thunderbird org is definitely putting resources into this, not Mozilla.

I thought Mozilla still owned and thus funded Thunderbird. Someone must be ensuring that employees who work for the Thunderbird project are being payed even if it is a mostly community ran project.

The donation page still takes me to a Mozilla branded donation page which makes me think they are putting some resources into the project even if it isn't as fully funded as most would like.
