Star Qualcomm Hands Off Eudora to Mozilla
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Wed 11th Oct 2006 20:09 UTC
Mozilla & Gecko clones Qualcomm on Wednesday joined up with the Mozilla Foundation to announce it is transitioning Eudora into an open source e-mail client that will be based upon Thunderbird. In turn, all future versions of Eudora will be free and Qualcomm will discontinue the current paid client. Although it may seem like Eudora is simply abandoning its e-mail software, which has a small but strong following of loyal users, the company claims the Thunderbird-based client will retain "Eudora's uniquely rich feature set and productivity enhancements".

Agreed fully. Sometimes the whole ideal falls flat on it's face.
