A new version of the popular email client Thunderbird is available on the public Mozilla ftp site. No announcement yet on the official Thunderbird website and the update function from within Thunderbird is also not picking up this new version yet. The version on the official Mozilla Thunderbird website still lists version 2.0.0.6.
The Rumbling Edge lists 39 improvements over version 2.0.0.8 which is also only available on the ftp site at the moment. Nine improvements have the critical status which means the upgrade should be performed as soon as possible. There is no word yet as well if this is the release version or yet another release candidate version for testers only.
It seems to work fine and I was not able to spot any problems thus far using it.
