   As Mozilla Messaging CEO David Ascher noted in a blog entry earlier this month, the goal of alpha 1 is primarily to expose regressions and bugs in the application that are introduced by the adoption of Gecko 1.9. Although the new version of Gecko represents an enormous change to the mail program's underlying infrastructure, the program still looks much the same on the surface.The name Shredder was adopted to indicate to users that its current state does not reflect what the final Thunderbird 3 experience will be like.This is similar to the way that Firefox uses "Minefield" branding on nightly builds.
   
   "I'm quite pleased with where it seems Shredder a1 has landed from a quality point of view.It has very few feature changes, so don't expect many changes from Thunderbird 2, but it is built on a quite substantially revised codebase (sharing much with Firefox 3), and therefore forms a great foundation for us to start making more substantive changes," said Ascher in a blog entry.
