+  To get an up to date version of lightning you should use the new
+  LIGHTNING option in mail/thunderbird or www/seamonkey. This option
+  is not enabled by default so you have to run "make config" prior
+  to the build. The old deskutils/lightning-thunderbird and 
+  deskutils/lightning ports should no longer be used and will be
+  removed very soon.
+
+  Like other XPIs ports, lightning now registers itself as a global
+  extension and doesn't create the XPI to be installed manually.
+  Upgrading users should remove lightning from their profile before
+  installing Thunderbird or SeaMonkey the first time with the new
+  LIGHTNING option enabled.
