Thunderbird ☛ Thunderbird Blog: Desktop Calendar: A Design Journey
Hello, Thunderbird community and followers of the blog! This is Jesse from the design team. Today’s post is about our recent journey in redesigning the calendar portion of Thunderbird, and what you can expect us to deliver in the near future.

This was a time you had to buy Ethernet NuBus card and install both Ethernet drivers and TCP/IP ones.
