Donation landing page update? Help landing page update? https://give.thunderbird.net/help/ Donor concerns: Quality of German version of Thunderbird (dictionary not very good) Desire to have easy-to-understand “how to use Thunderbird” resources Mobile device support (phones, tablets)

Action item: Develop gdoc with: What donors need to know (how to install, general “getting started”) Biggest questions not answered in FAQ Old support docs that need to be updated (Extra: potential format for this information beyond text--audiovisual? How often would this need to be updated?)

Question Time

Geoff: Time to stop 32-bit Linux? Yes please. Alex: Who’s “in charge” of the Chat code? (Florian is the chat module owner.) Paul: UI design process? What’s the preferred way to do this?
