21 | <ul> |
22 | <li>Port of SeaMonkey to the <span class="hilite">"new toolkit"</span></li> |
23 | <li>Retaining the feel of the suite, but based on newer technology</li> |

28 | update mechanism, satchel + new password manager, |
29 | toolbar customization, error console, etc.</li> |
30 | <li>Base suite-specific functionality and/or UI on toolkit where reasonable: |
31 | <span class="hilite">grippytoolbar</span> as XBL extension to toolkit toolbars, |
32 | <span class="hilite">custom tabbrowser</span> using toolkit's browser element, |
33 | several <span class="hilite">overlays</span> to toolkit windows, etc.</li> |
34 | <li>Ease porting of Firefox/Thunderbird extensions to SeaMonkey</li> |
35 | <li>Make <span class="hilite">Lighting calendar</span> work with SeaMonkey</li> |
36 | <li>Integrate a profile migrator (primary for old suites, FF/TB)</li> |
37 | <li>Use <span class="hilite">NSIS</span> for the Windows installer</li> |
38 | <li>First release as the Gecko-1.9-based SeaMonkey</li> |
