Thunderbird is an independent project with its legal and financial home at <a href="%(foundation)s">the Mozilla Foundation</a>. The Mozilla Foundation believes the Internet is a global public resource that must remain open and accessible to all. It is focused on advocacy issues and keeping the Internet healthy, but is also the sole shareholder in the maker of Firefox, the Mozilla Corporation. Mozilla exerts no governance over the project, which instead falls to the Thunderbird Council, elected by the Thunderbird project’s community. The Mozilla Foundation became Thunderbird’s home after an <a href="%(home_blog_post)s">exploration of legal homes in 2017</a.>.
Thunderbird 是一个独立项目，仅有法律和财务归属于 <a href="%(foundation)s">Mozilla 基金会</a>。Mozilla 基金会相信，互联网是全球的公共资源，必须保持开放且人人可用。它专注于提出倡议并捍卫互联网健康，但同时也是 Firefox 缔造者 Mozilla 公司的唯一股东。本项目并不由 Mozilla 进行任何管理，而是由 Thunderbird 项目社区选出的 Thunderbird 委员会负责。本项目<a href="%(home_blog_post)s">在 2017 年，探索法律上的组织模式</a.>后，Mozilla 基金会成为 Thunderbird 实际的家。
