I have Thunderbird with lightning beta installed on Fedora 15
(gnome3/gnome-shell DE).  The default Mail Client in Gnome3 is
Evolution.  Evolution crashed sometime ago and messed up my contacts
and mail db.  So, I decided to try Thunderbird.

The problem is that Gnome3 doesn't yet realize that Thunderbird with
Lighting (beta) provides Calender services (correct me if I'm wrong
please).  Is there a way to correct this so that the Calendar events
will show up on Gnome-shell calender UI?

Of course. You must first write a patch against DateMenu
(js/ui/dateMenu.js:55) so that it can pick a custom source instead
of the default DBusEventSource (possibly analizing
org.gnome.default-applications.calendar or some other GSettings key),
then just write a Lighting EventSource (see js/ui/calendar.js), using
whatever DBus API or library Lightning uses (it may involve an extension
for Lightning, if database access is not normally granted to external
processe).
Thanks for your interest in this and file a bug when you're ready!

what is the right place to file this bug? Bugzilla?

Yes, gnome-shell component.
