Mozilla's Sunbird Reviewed
comforteagle writes "Mozilla Sunbird is the latest stand-alone application from the Mozilla foundation that follows in the footsteps of now revered browser Firefox and email client Thunderbird. OSDir reviews their first public release, version 0.2. Screenshots included."
And if history is any indicator of the future, it should reach Ver. 1.0 in 2015!
Judging from the screenshots, Sunbird is a complete 100% rip-off of Apple's iCal, (just a lot uglier!)
Honestly, sunbird offers no more, no less than iCal. It's like they're the same program. The ONLY thing I can see that sunbird offers over iCal is that it tells you the number of the week out of the year. That's it.
Not to mention that the UI is ugly as a sin.
Come on, Mozilla, why can't you innovate any more? The mozilla suite is a clone of netscape communicator. Firefox is a clone of netscape navigator. Thunderbird is netscape mail on steroids (basically a combo of Netscape Mail and Apple's mail.app). And now Sunbird is a direct iCal ripoff...
