12 in the day. I have a problem though. I started cooking, invited | |
13 a couple friends over for dinner and then took a walk to a | |
14 24hr doughnut shop where I sat outside and talked about | |
15 random stuff. Oh well, at least it's still before the 18th. | |

21 Rob: \O. Howdy doodie! This release isn't coming too far behind | |
22 the previous release but hey, what can ya say, there were a couple | |
23 of good fixes in this one. Jabber & IRC can set / view the topics | |
24 of chat rooms now, napster doesnt crash on bad login names and | |
25 passwords, and the man page got a big update. | |
26 | |
27 Well, that's about all, folks. Next release, I hope to try to get | |
28 group MSN chat support added as well as DCC support in the IRC | |
29 plugin. | |

113 on my list of repairs is the napster plugin. It works -- sorta -- | |
114 sometimes. Heh. As all of you probably know already, our Oscar | |

1199 | 231 Rob: Hey guys! Guess what!? Yup, you're correct! It's the pre1 |
232 release of 0.11.0. We have all sorts of goodies in this release! | |
233 Check out the ChangeLog file. As always if you find any bugs, | |
234 please report them on www.sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/ | |
1195 | 235 |
236 You may find several small bugs as this is still a prerelease. | |
1192 | 237 |
1199 | 238 You may want to note that my IRC plugin does not have full |
239 functionality as of yet. All of the important / commands will be | |
240 added before the final release. Also, if someone could send me | |
241 some good buddylist pixmaps for the irc plugin then I'd much | |
242 appreciate it. Thanks to everyone who made this new release possible! | |
1194 | 243 |
1195 | 244 If you have any ideas, comments, or suggestions, please let us know |
1199 | 245 either by e-mail or via the source forge message board at the URL |
246 above. :) | |

1195 | 249 Eric: So what was Yay! For Gaim!? Yay was the codename for the |
250 Yahoo plugin. The whole point of all of these changes was I wanted to | |
251 make a proof-of-concept plugin that would let Gaim sign into Yahoo. It | |
252 turned out to be pretty much impossible with the old code. So, | |
253 Rob and I hacked gaim so we could do just that. There's now a whole new | |
254 class of plugins, Protocol Plugins, that let users dynamically add new | |
255 protocols to Gaim. Just load the plugin, and create a new account that | |
256 uses that protocol, and you're set! Yay! (Oscar and TOC are both still | |
257 static. Gaim is, after all, primarily an AIM client.) | |

370 next few days I'll be sitting down with some of my friends and coming | |
371 up with an improved interface. I hope you all enjoy it. It'll | |
372 include better looking dialogs, icons, sounds (hopefully lol), etc. | |

170 | 425 0.9.15: |
219 | 426 Hey boy's and girls. There's not much to say here this time. |
427 We're loving Southern California, the new job's going great. We just | |
428 got our company website up and the product development is going pretty | |
429 smooth. Life's pretty sweet now. | |
430 | |
431 We've hacked up all kinds of goodies for you in 0.9.15. There's | |
432 some file transfer (receive) support for those of you who have been | |
433 wanting it for a while. There's some other misc. goodies tossed in as | |
434 well. Enjoy!! Oh yeah, we need a new website. Come up with a sweet | |
435 design and get in touch with me. The current site is at: | |
436 http://www.marko.net/gaim | |
437 | |
438 Thanks much! | |
439 | |
170 | 440 |
76 | 441 0.9.14: |
104 | 442 Well, there's a few random hacks and fixes in here, along with |
443 a little suprise. You guessed it, kiddos, support for plugins! Happy | |
444 hacking! | |
76 | 445 |
56 | 446 0.9.13: |
69 | 447 Not much to say for this release. Bug fixes, That's all. Look |
448 for the goodies I promised in 0.9.13 to appear in 0.9.14 which should be | |
449 released very soon now. | |
56 | 450 |
71 | 451 By the way, our CVS is now hosted over at source forge. Go check |
452 it out at http://www.sourceforge.net. Please check there before submitting | |
453 any bug reports (You can read our CVS comments to see if we have fixed any | |
454 problems). | |
455 | |
7 | 456 0.9.12: |
25 | 457 Well guys, looks like we got some nifty things in this version. |
458 TrueType Fonts are supported for those XFSTT buffs out there (or whatever | |
459 else you use). A crap load of those plaguing memory leaks have FINALLY been | |
460 fixed. My brother, Jeramey, and a new friend Peter Teichan helped stomp | |
461 those babies out. A rad guy by the name of Eric Warmenhoven has been | |
462 really sweet lately and has all but rewritten the Gnome Applet support :). | |
463 He submitted patch after patch. I finally got annoyed with him (just kidding bud) | |
464 and gave him CVS access. Look for Gnome Applet support in Gaim to start improving. | |
465 That's about all for now. I wanted to get this release out there. File Receive | |
466 support will be in 0.9.13 which is due out soon. | |
7 | 467 |
0 | 468 0.9.11: |
469 Jeramey got a new Comfy Chair! Its very very comfy! Whee! | |
470 Jim also had a little hyper-drunken moment and started hacking away at | |
471 a new configuration format for GAIM. Looks like we're running .gaimrc | |
472 version 1 now. Gotta love it. I got bored and hacked in a couple font | |
473 properties that will, in time, contain more features. That's about it | |
474 for this version -- cept for that memory leak we fixed. Shush! We're | |
475 not plumbers! -- rob | |
476 | |
477 ** Extra special update ** | |
478 | |
479 Well guys, it looks like we all stopped working on gaim, moved to California, | |
480 and took up a new job. Don't worry though, those beach bums out here havent | |
481 worn off on us yet. I've decided to pick up the Gaim torch myself and continue | |
482 development ont he prohect. Hopefully we wont have any more five month braks in | |
483 the project. Sorry about that, guys :) | |
484 | |
485 0.9.10: | |
486 Umm. Dont ask. Silly memory leak. For those of you who | |
487 wondered, you were losing about 256 bytes every 25 seconds for each | |
488 person you have on your contact list. Make fun of us. Better yet .. | |
489 Send us beer. We'll do better :) | |
490 | |
491 0.9.9: | |
492 Welp, All of you boys and girls who run Mandrake and have some | |
493 problems with GAIM working properly, please check out the FAQ file. It | |
494 contains a nice fix submitted by one of our users. I hope this works for | |
495 you guys! | |
496 Jim appears to have intoxicated himself. This is, as always, a | |
497 Good Thing (tm). His late-night adventure with the liquid-bread food group | |
498 lead to the birth of a nice little feature called `The Lag-O-Meter'. Dont | |
499 ask, just try it out :). It is pretty pointless if you have a super-fast | |
500 connection but if you are a modem user, like many of us are, then try it out. | |
501 There's also some idle preferences and some other little random | |
502 bug fixes. Check'em out yo :) | |
503 | |
504 0.9.8: | |
505 Get Along Lil' Doggies. Heh. Looks like we have yet another new | |
506 version of gaim for you guys to play with. Be gentle now, it has a few | |
507 new fetures. The HTML widget is now more robust and we have *da da da* | |
508 HTTP proxy support. | |
509 Oh By The Way, Do not pay too much attention to what we are doing | |
510 with this release. We are all a little bit happy tonight. You must love | |
511 life. This is a special release of gaim. We will be releasing some wonderful | |
512 photographs soon .. or perhaps if we get the bloody webcam working then we | |
513 will take a couple of quick snapshots. | |
514 Looks like the GAIM developers convention (cool name huh) that we | |
515 had this weekend in Auburn, AL went wonderfully :). yum yum yum. Hahahah. Oh | |
516 by the way. Beware of insecure rednecks in the deli. Bad things. | |
517 In (non)related news, Jeramey could not successfully slaughter the | |
518 one pound hamburger that he ordered. (I think he could have done it but he | |
519 wasn't feeling very well at the time). | |
520 Oh Yes, New Logo Too :) You likes? Thanks, Naru! | |
521 Just a little side-note: it looks like we didnt make the release that | |
522 we had expected during the Gaim Convention. Maybe we partied too much? I am | |
523 not sure. I remember watching the sun rise before I went to bed, though. | |
524 Oh well. Here's your release! Enjoy! | |
525 By The Way, we have uploaded our party pictures to a website. | |
526 http://www.dorky.net/gaim/party/ They are nothing spectacular but I hope you | |
527 enjoy them! :). | |
528 | |
529 0.9.7: | |
530 Well, boys and girls, it's that time again! Yup, time for the good | |
531 release fairy to come bless us with her infinite wisdom and divine presence. | |
532 Umm, yeah, something like that. Anyways, this release has several little | |
533 "bad" network fixes (as Jim likes to say) and a couple touch-ups to a few | |
534 other features. It also features preliminary oscar support. Thanks to Jim | |
535 and Adam ("the libfaim guy") hehe :) We have also corrected a problem with | |
536 gaim not wainting to correctly save your password if you have an underscore | |
537 in it. Thanks to w1za7d for pointing out the underscore problem. ' and \ | |
538 have also been fixed in passwords. :o) | |
539 | |
540 0.9.6: | |
541 Sorry about the little segfaulting bugs in the past release. Rob | |
542 is stupid. :). Anyways, they have been patched up and a couple new features | |
543 have been added. I hope you guys enjoy. | |
544 | |
545 0.9.5: | |
546 Well we added a myriad of new features to this release. (A lot of | |
547 small buggie fixes too.) If you need a detailed list just check out the | |
548 ChangeLog. We now have a new webpage design and have added a FAQ to the | |
549 distribution. Before coming to us with any problems please take a quick | |
550 look through the FAQ to make sure we havent already covered your question. | |
551 Also, thanks to our beloved Web Monkey, FlynOrange, we have all | |
552 learned the true power of foam weapons, slinkies, and whoopie cushions. Hmm | |
553 gotta love those pranks, eh? | |
554 | |
555 0.8.0: | |
556 Well, just starting the NEWS file. I'll try to remember what's new | |
557 from the last version. Hmmm. BIG code reorg. Import/export, buddy pounce | |
558 among the major new features. Autoconf script too, which is a big win. | |
559 Apologies to those who submitted patches which haven't made it in.. I | |
560 promise, the next version! This code reorg took up a lot of my time, and I | |
561 want to get it out there. | |
