I should point out again that (given the discussions I've had with the Thunderbird maintainer) we are almost certainly going to be happy with what Debian itself does.

As someone raised earlier, isn't this just replacing one trademark problem with another (Debian)?
Those also aren't particularly wieldy names for a title bar or package ;-)
I have a hard time believing that after all this time they want people to get away from their names, but if that's really what they want, let'sdo it.
No, we don't want people to get away from the names. But we do want a way of ensuring that they are a mark of quality in trademark terms.
