Well, the last news I could find is from less than a month ago:
http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/calendar/2009/12/questions_and_answers_for_the.html
  There's no release candidate for Sunbird yet. When will that be
  available?
  As said in the earlier post we are having problems with our Sunbird
  build machines. Once those are fixed, we will make a release candidate
  for Sunbird available.

So, it doesn't quite look dead (yet).
