Mozilla & Gecko clones "On her weblog, Mozilla Corporation CEO Mitchell Baker has announced that Mozilla Thunderbird is to move to a "new, separate organizational setting" as the Mozilla Foundation continues to focus ever more closely on Firefox. While the Mozilla Foundation supports a number of projects, its taxable subsidiary the Mozilla Corp. is responsible for only Firefox and Thunderbird. However, it has become increasingly clear that Firefox is the priority. The resources allocated to Firefox dwarf those allocated to Thunderbird and recent projects such as the initiative to improve Mozilla support exclude Thunderbird."

I'm not into conspiracy theories, and Thunderbird is such a small part of the market that it might not even be a gain for Google to dump it, but you have a reasonable point. With most of Mozilla's money coming from Google, you can bet their objectives are aligning.
