MODERATORS
i hope they'll still over it through fdroid too.
Given that they dont offer firefox, I dont see why they would offer thunderbird
but they offer fennec, which is basically firefox without the google stuff, and k9 is already in fdroid so it'd be a shame if they pull it now.
from the page it looks like they're working on getting the beta in fdroid though, so here's hoping.
Thanks TIL about fennec fox
The Fennec F-Droid build isn't maintained by Mozilla, but by someone else. They link to Mozilla for donations and source code, but the issue tracker for Fennec on F-Droid links to their own repo.
K-9 Mail on F-Droid is maintained by the K9-team, which works for MZLA/Thunderbird. Thus I'd guess it shouldn't take to much work adding Thunderbird to F-Droid.

It won't be allowed at fdroid its full of Mozilla's spyware.
K9-Mail has been and continues to be on F-Droid, while it's basically the same as Thunderbird Android, except for branding.
