* My discussions have begun with Bryan W Clark (:clarkbw) who has suggested first steps which include getting 3-finger scroll functioning with the behavior to include scrolling up goes to the top of a message or thread/message list, and scrolling down goes to the bottom of that message or list. From there, other implementations can be developed.
 
* [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=465257#c14 RELEASE 0.1]
I'm very excited to have posted my first publicly reviewable patch.
** It implements 4 swipe gesture events
*** 3-finger swipe up: scrolls immediately to the top of the email message
*** 3-finger swipe down: scrolls immediately to the bottom of the email message
*** 3-finger swipe left: move to the previous message in the message thread
*** 3-finger swipe right: moves to the next message in the message thread
** these actions were developed first as they were the ones defined in the bug as the starting point.
** there was some butchering of the gGestureSupport object, particularly the _doAction property.
** this release has also been announced on [http://andrewgrimo.wordpress.com/2009/10/22/thunderbird-multi-touch-0-1-release-on-the-path-of-a-bug/ my blog at this link].
