It's now at the 0.5 version, and there is a plug-in that integrates Sunbird with Thunderbird, called [Lightning][]. It allows you to not only have a calendar, but send and receive meeting requests as well. I'm running Thunderbird 2 under Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04) on the AMD64 architecture, and could not find a pre-compiled version of this that worked. So, I decided to give it a shot. It was pretty easy, and the result is a plug-in that works with the AMD64 version of Thunderbird! Since I had trouble finding it, I thought I would share it. Since I have just started using it, I haven't wrung it out, or tested all the options. Use at your own risk, etc. You can download the plug-in here _(UPDATE: See [this post][].)_ Happy storming! ;) [Mozilla Sunbird]: //www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird/ "Mozilla Sunbird Calendar Project" [Lightning]: //www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/lightning/ "Lightning Plug-in for Thunderbird" [this post]: /2007/mozilla-now-hosting-lightning-64-bit-plug-in.html "Mozilla Now Hosting Lightning 64-bit Plug-In • The Bit Badger Blog"
