Ready for TB 68+?

[elhennig]

Is this addon ready for the usage with Thunderbird 68 and higher (or probably 67)? If not, are there plans to update it?

[quenton89]

Agree -- lets at least know if its planned!

Note the commit 31292a5 "add src/manifest.json for TB69, note: not fully work yet"

The upgrade to 68+ takes a fair amount of work, no doubt it will come eventually.

I would also like to have the update, thanks :)

This would be awesome, I feel lost without this plugin :)
I'd happily insert some coins if that would be helpful.

[quenton89]

There doesn't seem to be any movement at all on this -- very concerning to me as my whole email handling (I have about 8 accounts I need to handle) depends on this add-on :(

I would gladly donate $20

@wangvisual could you say anything on this topic? Maybe you could just contact me and we could talk about what's needed to get this super helpful plugin back to work. Thanks!

[quenton89]

I see nothing happening -- Wang Opera has three addons, none have been updated for the new Thunderbird, and no comments from the developer for many months on any of them.

[ScottHiser]

Time permitting, it would be worth branching this or contributing. With a single developer working on something it should be concerning because life (and death) happens and a project can abruptly end.

[quenton89]

I agree, but you'd have to get in touch with the developer first!

I would also appreciate any news – or suggestions for alternatives, should there be none. Thanks!

[quenton89]

I have spent many hours trying to see how I might do the half-dozen things I do with this addon in other ways, so far I have found nothing.

Hey, that's promising - a sign of life from wangvisual! :-)
Wang Opera, please share your plans for this super useful plugin with us. Looks like there are quite a few enthusiastic users willing to support the required update to TB 68+ either with some money or by actually taking part of the work!
