So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

So they want to bloat the system just like Outlook? The more stripped the app, the better, IMO. Otherwise, I'd just run Outlook.

This is awesome.
It's possible to add abilities without making it heavy and convoluted like Outlook. As internet communication evolves with IM, webmail, VoIP, and social sites, all messaging clients need to stay nimble and keep options open.
Outlook and Exchange are deeply rooted in a lot of corporations. If Thunderbird wants to be more than a home email POP/IMAP client it needs to grow. It needs easy corporate deployment and mass-manageability. It needs a good flexible server platform that supports email, calendars, scheduling, shared calendars, and shared email folders with a maintainable security model.

Hopefully this subsidiary will bring magic to Thunderbird the way the restructured Mozilla Corporation+Foundation has brought success to Firefox. Thunderbird is a good email program, but clearly can go to even higher heights.
Seriously improving the Sunbird calendar to give it some PIM-like capabilities is a good start. I don't consider it bloat.

The only time I use a desktop client now (Outlook) is at work. The fact that I can access web mail from anywhere has made me a hard-core user of Yahoo!. So why do we need another desktop client?

I have to agree somewhat with Jaymez. The beauty of Mozilla products is their customization.
Not all users want calendar functions or IM and chat so the ability to add user specific plugins has to stay a key feature of Thunderbird. Having said that, I use the Lightning plugin and Sameplace so would welcome development of both calendar and IM capabilities.
Also with the development of Google Apps as a viable business email / PIM server it will be interesting to see if M$ loses some of its grip in the corporate sector over the coming years. I hope so.
