554877 - Toy with the start page to provide access to more resources

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Help Documentation, enhancement)

Description

[Ludovic Hirlimann [:Usul]]

With the messing up in bug 553544, I've been getting plenty of emails from our 2.0.0.24 users.

Majority of these where support requests.
Second was people telling me they wanted to participate.
Some where just feedbacks.


That being said, I think we should try to make our support more obvious to our users and add a gsnf widget in the start page - this might help some of our users to find the support.

One thing we need to do is do by locales. With the pages in english I got plenty of request to restaure Thunderbird in the language they wanted it to be. Most of these from French People , some germans and a very few in japanese (and at least the japanese ones were in english).

Assignig to Bryan so he can toy with the idea  (and before I forget I had this idea). cc people who might be interested with the idea.

I shouldn't be the assignee for these bugs.  Filter against clarkbfilter to delete all these from your emails.
