Transparent calender items in Thunderbird

I am not the only person with this problem:
Something calendar entries in Lightning register as status Tentative and it shows in a different transparent shade of the calendar color. I can manually change the status to confirmed directly in lightning however that is a pain. Plus, it sounds crazy but having these entries a different shade/color drives me nuts.

Now see: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=2318957 for a way to deal with this… except of course, it is not the complete solution and only works after a slight modification. So what to do:

Shocking

Found this on this website and made me think; ‘hm, maybe I should do that too?’ I have to look into this…

Phonegap Build Android Splashscreen

Here we go again …
CLI-8.1.1 is new, new is better, ehm, except that the splashscreen stopped showing on Android. Stepping back to cli-7.1.0 solves this problem, but that is not really solving it.

<!-- Platforms to compile -->
    <gap:platform name="ios" />
    <gap:platform name="android" />

<!-- Define a specific version of PhoneGap to build -->
    <platform name="android">
        <preference name="phonegap-version" value="cli-7.1.0" />
    </platform>
    <platform name="ios">
        <preference name="phonegap-version" value="cli-8.1.1" />
    </platform>

Of course you search for solutions and may find out about density and qualifier, but neither keyword works. Also this link does not help by adding:

< platform name="android">
     < preference name="SplashScreen" value="splash" />
< /platform>

the only “solution” so far is…

<platform name="android">
    <preference name="phonegap-version" value="cli-7.1.0" />
</platform>

sorry.
