My TB beta has disabled Lightning 4.7b3 as non-compatible.

That is also the latest build I can find on AMO - Released March 30, 2016: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/lightning/versions/

The wiki on the other hand has 5.0b1 linked to AMO stating I could find in the release channel - which I can't - and has also listed versions 4.8b1, 4.9b1 of which none can be found on the release channel either: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Calendar/Calendar_Versions

Where can I find these listed versions to test them an get my Lightning back!? Is there a ftp somewhere?

Thanks for the quick answer. I didn't ask for a solution changing to an older or non-beta version of TB, though, but for the in the wiki listed, newer versions of lightning.

I quote your original question.

Yeah, and I was talking about listed lightning versions before, including two links and

... has also listed [lightning*] versions 4.8b1, 4.9b1 ...

\*added, contextually followed by a link to the Lightning wiki page

I know how to use search engines, but "lightning calendar ftp versions" didn't get me anywhere (in duckduckgo, though).

Being patronised in a help forum isn't really what people seeking help are looking for - thanks for your time anyway.
