Product Description:

The Sunbird Project is a redesign of the Mozilla Calendar component. Our goal is to produce a cross platform standalone calendar application based on Mozilla's XUL user interface language. At the moment the "Sunbird" name is a project name. It is not official and may change in the future.

Our intended user is someone who uses Mozilla Firefox (or another browser) as his browser, Mozilla Thunderbird (or another mail client) as his mail client and wants a calendar application based on Mozilla.

In addition, by focusing solely on standalone calendar, we believe we can make some dents in the overall footprint and performance of the calendar application by removing components and chrome we don't need.

At the moment Sunbird is in an experimental stage. Although it is quite stable, we recommend it for testing purposes only.

What's new in this version:

A new icon set which matches more closely the icon style of other mozilla applications
Category colors are now shown next to an event box, giving users a much better overview of their differently categorized events
Events with alarms now have a visual indicator showing an alarm bell
A totally overhauled alarm dialog
Sunbird now recognizes the timezone definitions in .ics files created by other applications. This fixes the longstanding issue of Sunbird miscalculating the date or time of events contained in those files
The timezone guessing has been significantly improved
Sunbird now contains experimental support for viewing remote calendars offline. This feature has known bugs and is included for testing purposes only
Sunbird contains several performance fixes, which should improve working with larger calendar files
You can now define for each of your calendars, whether you want to be notified of alarms for events in these calendars or not
