Question Time

Alex: On startup, starting with a disabled calendar or no calendar at all? Alex: Treeherder: How to restart a failed try run?

pmorris: should we uplift to beta the patches to adapt (hide) calendar UI when users have calendars disabled? Survey says no need to uplift.

Wayne: Anyone have their eyes on bug 570442 Need larger display font for Thunderbird message list/pane and folder list/pane which is a very common support issue (assumption, we have a large population of older users) - the bug is missing at least a couple dozen recent support citations because https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/theme-font-size-changer-fixed no longer works
