How many newcomers Thunderbird can afford?
== How many newcomers Thunderbird can afford? ==
I enjoyed the talk when somebody asked that how many newcomers the Thunderbird community can handle at the moment? And Answer to the answer from Mr. Mosedale was question is 30-50newcomers every month. I was wondering why it is so less? Then Mr. Dan convinced me through his arguments. He stated that Thunderbird is not big community as much as Firefox or Fedora. It is so small compare to them. Thunderbird does not have enough technical support people to guide newcomers and writing code at the same time. Technical support people have to write the code, fix the bugs, enhance features and ship the product. In addition, they have to provide technical help to the newcomers. These require lots of efforts and tremendous amount of time. SoHence, that is the reason they Thunderbird community cannot afford so many newcomers at the moment.
