Current status and discussions

  • mconley still did not put together this etherpad!
  • Chat updates in brief:
    • Instantbird now uses bugzilla.mozilla.org
    • instantbird front-end code will be merged into comm-central in a folder named im/
    • GPL code (libpurple + glue code) would be in a separate repository
      • This would make it easier to develop the add-on for TB as well
