Hi All:
I've read on the Mozilla Sunbird wiki that "Development of Sunbird was ended with release 1.0 beta 1 to focus on development of Mozilla Lightning". I think it could be useful to transition from Sunbird to Lightening to stay up to date on these calendar/PIM applications. Do the developers think that is a possibility?
Thanks
Jojo

There's no need. Lightning is an add-on for Thunderbird and works with Thunderbird Portable. Just add it in. It can't run without Thunderbird, so there will be no "Lightning Portable". Sunbird is just still available for legacy users.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Thanks John:
I was thinking of a standalone "Lightning Portable", but that won't happen. I still use Sunbird but will probably switch to Lightning/Thunderbird. From your post I gather that I install Thunderbird, and then install the Lightning add in and it will/should add to the existing portable Thunderbird smoothly.
Thanks.

Just install Thunderbird Portable and then add Lightning. There were some instructions floating around on importing from Sunbird, but as long as you use online calendar sources, just pointing Lightning at them should be enough.

Thanks for the quick and on-point reply. For me, this thread is successfully closed. Thanks again.
