Why is FC3 stuck with Thunderbird 0.9?

[Carlos Rodrigues]

I know that this probably was already asked a million times, I don't 
remember ever reading an answer?

Firefox already got several updates, for 1.0, 1.0.1 and now another 
1.0.1, but Thunderbird never got any.

I've been using Thunderbird from development and it works just fine 
(much better than FC3's firefox, which has a bunck of broken stuff in 
comparison with the mozilla.org release), so I see no reason not to do 
an update.

Another example is Mozilla, which has had some security issues fixed in 
recent versions but FC3 never got past 1.7.3.

So, summing it up... is there any strong reason for not updating 
Thunderbird on FC3?
