0.59.5 released! Now with fewer calories!

October 17th, 2002 - 12:26AM EDT

I just pushed Gaim v0.59.5 to the servers. This release contains the fix for the recent protocol change made by Yahoo!. Download and enjoy.


v0.60.0-alpha2 released for Win32!

October 09th, 2002 - 9:15PM EDT

The second alpha release of the Win32 preview of Gaim 0.60.0 has been released. This release includes perl support, Gadu-Gadu, and language translations. Highlighting text in the conversation window copies it to the windows clipboard. Support for minimizing to the system tray has been added, as well as support for the windows 'default browser.'

We recommend that you uninstall the previous version of the win32 gaim (0.60.0-alpha1) before installing this new version.


v0.59.4 released! Run for your lives!

October 06th, 2002 - 7:45PM EDT

We've released the latest and greatest of bug fixes for the stable tree. There aren't very many changes in this release. We mostly let it out to hold everyone over while we work on Gaim v0.60. We think you'll really enjoy it when we're finished. As always, see the ChangeLog if you have any questions.


Website maintenance

September 26th, 2002 - 3:41AM PDT

We experienced a few problems with the website, and lost some data. Particularly, the past two news items, relating to the win32 release of gaim and something else I can't remember, and updated FAQ information. We'll be working to restore this data.

The necessary back-end code for member management and the all-new plugins database has been added, though not yet enabled. When some work is done to the plugins system in gaim, this portion of the site will be up.

It seems we have all the missing news, and the FAQ is being updated. Thanks for being patient everyone!


Because nobody reads the FAQ anyway

September 23rd, 2002 - 5:05PM EDT

I just wanted to let you all know that there is no applet for GNOME 2 (nor will there ever be). Instead, Robert McQueen has written a Docklet plugin. A docklet does everything our applet used to do, but with far less overhead. Plus, it'll work with KDE. The docklet conforms to the freedesktop.org standards implemented by GNOME 2 with its Notification Area applet found in GNOME CVS--tarred up here by Robert McQueen and by KDE with this patch from RedHat's null beta. Just load docklet.so, and you're set to go.

*Update 09/24/2002 12:59PM EDT*

We just received word that the above patch to the KDE kicker is now in KDE CVS and will be included in KDE 3.1.
