Because all the log reading and writing is abstracted, it makes it real easy
to tell Gaim, "give me entire contents of the last conversation," which is
useful for, say, a history.c plugin. This code is now much simpler, and it
took no time at all to port it.
Sort-by-log will be a bit harder.
And because two people asked me within a minute of me committing it, there
exists an "old log" GaimLogLogger that doesn't write logs, but can list and
read them. So, you'll be able to seamlessly see your old logs along with
your new logs together in the log viewer.

25 you paranoid people can hide your local username by changing | |
26 your IRC account settings. I also want to note that we are | |
27 aware that building Gaim is Harder than it Should Be on | |

69 I re-wrote the Jabber support from scratch, so now there's at least one | |
70 person who knows what's going on with it. I got lost in the old code, | |
71 even in the parts I wrote. It now supports the SASL login stuff from | |
72 the XMPP protocol specs, and will automagically upgrade the conncetion | |
73 to SSL if it's supported. If anything doesn't work like it did before, | |
74 it's probably better, and you should be thankful for it. | |
75 | |
7225 | 76 Ethan: I'm sure I'll be showered with all kinds of wonderful things, |
77 but I doubt it's because I did anything. The reason being that I | |
78 really don't think I did anything. I meant to do some gaim_ | |
79 prepension and documentation for IRC and Tcl, and handle IRC errors | |
80 more responsibly, but I've been meaning to do that for months. | |
7226 | 81 Except the Tcl part, the Tcl plugin hasn't even existed for months. |
7225 | 82 I figure if I write enough NEWS no one will notice I didn't do |
83 anything during the release cycle. Oh, I did close some bugs. I | |
84 didn't fix them, mind you, I just closed them. With abandon. | |

218 haven't worked on anything in this release, either. I've been | |
219 working offline on a MacOSX UI. No, you're not allowed to ask | |

221 you. You've been warned! :-D | |

6134 | 223 Sean: Although I tend to go right here in the two slot in NEWS, |
224 we don't always commit in this order. This is the third time I've | |
225 rewritten this because the jerks below me keep commiting while I'm | |
226 writing causing mass conflictination. Grrr. Stupid jerks. Anyway, | |
227 this is Gaim 0.65. Like other Gaim releases, this allows you to | |
228 converse with people far away over the "Internet." That's about it. | |
229 It's really not that interesting. In fact, I wouldn't even bother | |
230 reading the other people's NEWS. It's all boring. There's some | |
231 crap about forest fires and fangs and claws. It's really boring. | |
232 Great, now Luke just committed NEWS causing more conflictination. | |
233 I wouldn't bother reading his either. Oh, and I don't want to thank | |
234 Megan (Cae) or Kevin (SimGuy). They're stupid jerks too. Grrr... | |
235 | |
6129 | 236 Mark: I actually did stuff for this release. Go me. I probably |
237 shouldn't speak for all of us, but I'm going to anyway: We feel that | |
238 this release is one of Gaim's best. It should be relatively bug | |
6135 | 239 free, and the code is cleaner than ever, thanks to lots of work by |
6129 | 240 Christian and Nathan. We had some help from a few civilians |
241 finding and fixing bugs. Thanks to Megan (Cae), Ka-Hing Cheung | |
6130 | 242 (javabsp), and Kevin Stange (SimGuy) for their work. Man, I was just |
6129 | 243 looking at Sean's NEWS entry for 0.64--that's talent. Also, stay |
244 in school. Just say no. Only you can prevent forest fires. | |

6133 | 268 Luke: Wow! Finally releasing 0.65! Christian, Nathan, and Mark have |
269 worked really hard for this release, all the credit goes to them. | |
270 The new preferences are awesome, and there are more bugs fixed for | |
271 this release than in the last 3 or 4 releases. Your MSN should work | |
272 reliably again, your preferences saved, your accounts resort, the | |
273 list goes on and on. A couple preferences, most notably your buddy | |
274 list sorting preference won't be imported, but almost all of them | |
275 will be and its probly a good idea for you to take a second look | |
276 through preferences again anyway, alot of you are starting to | |
277 forget that things are optional again. :-) | |
278 | |
6137 | 279 Nathan: I think I did something for this release a while ago. I've |
280 got a mailbox full of commit emails, and some have my name on them, | |
281 so I must have done something, right? Probably some minor jabber stuff, | |
282 and lots of crazy bugfixes. It was a team effort, I'd like to thank the | |
283 academy, our producer Rob Flynn, and of course all the fans. You rock. | |

301 with cool new features, this time, we really mean it. In fact, they're | |
302 already in CVS (don't use CVS). The only obvious new feature for 0.64 | |
303 is buddy list sorting. This has been much requested and can be set in | |
304 the buddy list preferences. You can sort by name, by status, and even | |
305 by log file size--putting people you talk to most at the top. Plugins | |
306 can even easily add their own sorting methods. It's all very cool. I | |
5559 | 307 want to thank Luke and Ka-Hing for their initial work on it. And yes, |
5555 | 308 I did make my entire NEWS entry justified on purpose. |

5410 | 364 Nathan: It seems like 0.62 was forever and a day ago. I had to look |
365 at the ChangeLog to remember what I did. Apparently I made it so you | |
366 can put chats in your buddy list. And then I tweaked a bunch of stuff | |
367 and fixed a bunch of crashes. Then exams came, and then I went home | |
368 for a week and left my laptop's power cable here at school, so I didn't | |
369 get anything done. Jabber will get all sorts of fun new stuff for | |
370 the next release. Really. ;-) | |

5193 | 373 Sean: This is just another standard bi-weekly Gaim release. Nothing |
374 really interesting, but it has some good bugfixes. Personally, I've | |
375 been a bit removed from Gaim development lately what with school getting | |
376 tough and stuff, but the rest of the guys have really been doing great | |

5196 | 386 Luke: I didn't do much here besides the odd translation patch and a couple |
387 bug fix patches. This is primarily a bug fix release, and much needed at | |
388 that. Didn't get a chance to write sorting code, work has been busy. | |
389 Hopeefully it will happen for 0.63. | |
390 | |
5197 | 391 Mark: Gaim is coming along quite beautimously. I'm going to eat |
392 my Pop-tarts now. | |
393 | |
5198 | 394 Nathan: oh dot sixty two. There are a lot of bugs fixed in this release, |
395 and one major new feature. Our Jabber plugin now supports XHTML-IM. In | |
396 plain english, this means that you can now format your jabber messages, | |
397 and other people will see the formatting. GtkIMHTML still needs some | |
398 work to get it to parse valid XHTML-IM better, but that will come in time. | |
399 That time would come sooner if my CS prof accepted "I was hacking on Gaim" | |
400 as a valid excuse for an extension ;-) | |
401 | |
5058 | 402 0.61 (04/07/2003): |
5059 | 403 Rob: Nathan commited his news first. However, I'm cooler so I'm putting |
404 my entry above his. Yeah, so, there were some DnD issues with 0.60. I | |
405 blame it on the rain. It was falling, falling. I blame it on the | |
406 faucet. It drips all night. | |
407 | |
5073 | 408 Sean: I committed my news after Rob. I'm cooler than Nathan (by far) but |
409 not as cool as Rob. So I go here. Actually, I didn't do anything since | |
410 0.60 other than commit some other peoples patches. The one from Dave Camp | |
5079 | 411 is cool. How 'bout this snow? Isn't that crazy? Oh, and thanks to |
412 everyone who wished me a happy birthday. | |
5073 | 413 |
5058 | 414 Nathan: You want frequent releases? You got 'em ;-) Chip wrote some |
415 cool new pounce stuff, and things shouldn't get weird when you drag | |
416 groups and buddies around. It's bad enough having 1 of some of my | |
417 buddies on my list, I definitely don't need duplicates. Being that I | |
418 have class in the morning, I'll just raise my juice glass for this one. | |

5076 | 426 Luke: Okay, i'm probly the least cool, so I'll go last. I committed a few |
427 patches from other people here, nothing earth shattering though. The biggest | |
428 thing in this release is the group re-ordering bug fix, having that fixed | |
5079 | 429 will make for fewwer questions. Get used to using releases people, we want |

438 Rob: Wow. So, it has been a really long time since we started the | |
439 gtk2 fork. It's finally ready for public consumption. Sean is about | |
440 to go out and buy a case of beer. My roommate is downstairs right | |
441 now pouring me a shot of his choice. Everyone, raise your beers if | |
442 you've got them. It's been a cool almost 10-months of development. | |
443 I hope you all enjoy. Drink'em if you got'em! | |
444 | |
5024 | 445 Sean: I'm writing this 3 minutes before my 21st birthday. Nobody can |
446 believe we're finally ready to relase 0.60. Many thanks to everyone | |
447 who helped out; I'm convinced that Gaim 0.60 is the best IM client to | |
448 date (only to be bested by 0.61). There's WAY too much stuff to mention. | |
449 Even the ChangeLog is somewhat incomplete. Yay, I'm 21 now! Everyone | |
450 enjoy! :) | |
451 | |
5025 | 452 Nathan: Happy birthday Sean! Rob decided to let me start cleaning up |
453 after everyone, so here I am. "sexy" is the only word that can be used | |
454 to describe 0.60. Prepare to be shocked and amazed. /me raises his | |

473 I'm very tired but it's time for a release. Enjoy. :) | |
3334 | 474 SORRY FOR THE DELAY. :( |
475 | |
3335 | 476 Sean: It's been a long time since our last release, and for no |
477 good reason either. Rob and I just haven't been able to get together | |
478 to do it. But now we have. Aside from some Jabber changes and some | |
479 crucial MSN fixes, most of this release's changes are transparent, | |
480 but none-the-less important. Well get some better changes when my | |

3242 | 487 Rob: Yeah, so, my computer has been bad which is why the release |
488 didn't go out on time. Oh well. I would like to welcome | |
489 Jim Seymour aboard the development team. He's going to be taking | |
490 over the work on our Jabber code as well as doing various other | |
491 nit picking. He likes to pick nits, nats, and umm, knots, I think. | |
3238 | 492 |
3243 | 493 Sean: This release has a long ChangeLog. Higlights include an |
494 important security fix for MSN and a few nice new features. | |
495 Not *much* cooler than 0.57--but we're making progress ;) | |

3173 | 500 0.57 (04/25/2002): |
3180 | 501 Rob: Not too much in this release, as Sean said below. (This is |
502 what happens when the bottom person goes first.) New translation, | |
503 a few fixes, secure msn hotmail logins, blah blah blah. As Sean | |
504 said, the next release will be cooler. If only you could read | |
505 our minds ;-). | |
506 | |
3179 | 507 Sean: Nothing too special here, but a critical Yahoo fix that |
508 ensures Yahoo! will work when they discontinue the old protocol | |
509 all the other 3rd party clients are using. Next release will be | |
510 cooler, I promise. | |
3173 | 511 |
3144 | 512 0.56 (04/11/2002): |
513 Rob: Well, what do you know. I have another headache. I always have | |
514 these damned headaches. I got pissed off with the way GtkTree looks. | |
515 I wanted to move to using GtkCTree. I think they're pretty. | |
516 Unfortunately, GtkCTree sucks. After a little digging through | |
517 the code, I managed to molest GtkTree into looking like | |
518 GtkCTree. Thanks to everyone that helped track down that one | |
519 annoying style problem. | |
520 | |
521 Sean: Hello. This is another minor release while Rob and I finish | |
522 up on some bigger projects. We're reworking a lot of the UI to make | |
523 it easier to use, nicer looking, and more compatible with gtk2. | |
524 I've also been trying to bring the Yahoo plugin up to date, so it | |
525 will work for Indian users and avoid a potential problem in the near | |
526 future. | |
3114 | 527 |
3113 | 528 0.55 (03/29/2002): |
529 Rob: 0.55 is here. I've been away for a few days on business. Sean | |
530 has been on Spring Break. Therefore, this release is mostly a patch | |
531 release. It does fix some bugs and makes a few thing slightly cooler, | |
532 so it's better in that aspect, I suppose. Enjoy. | |
533 | |
3110 | 534 Sean: This is mostly a bugfix release. I'm on Spring Break, not |
535 doing any coding at all. But lots of people sent in great patches | |
536 anyway. Thanks guys! | |
3058 | 537 |
3053 | 538 0.54 (03/14/2002): |
539 Rob: Well, here we are. 0.54. We got a lot of fun things in this | |
540 release. Better working SSI, Image sending, protocol specific | |
541 smiley faces, and a whole lot of triscuits. *gobble* | |
542 | |
3054 | 543 Sean: We fixed a lot of bugs in this one, and probably introduced |
544 a bunch too. ;) We were both really busy, and did all the coding | |
545 late at night when we were tired, so if something isn't working, | |
546 it's probably just tired code. Enjoy the triscuits! | |

553 Sean: Neat Goodies! Whee!! Oscar got a lot of great additions. | |
554 It can do Screen Name formatting, it can save and store your buddy | |
555 list on the server, it can do typing notifications in Direct | |
556 Connections, and yes, it can receive IM Images! Sending images will | |
557 be added in the next release. MSN and Yahoo! can do typing | |
558 notification too. Hooray! | |
559 | |
2978 | 560 |
2961 | 561 0.52 (02/17/2002): |
2965 | 562 Rob: Well, after a long delay we're finally ready for another release. |
563 I finally got settled into my new apartment, the new job is going | |
564 well, and I finally have internet connectivity again. You can expect | |
565 us to be back on our usually bi-monthly schedule. Enjoy these fixen, | |
566 as they resolve a few connectivity issues. :-) | |
567 | |
568 Sean: It looks like things are back on track now. Eric left which is | |
569 sad. He's done so much for Gaim, and I know we're all thankful. | |
570 Thanks Eric! I'll be stepping in and do more development, but I can | |
571 never replace Eric. This release fixes a long-standing problem in | |
572 MSN. If you've gotten errors when trying to connect to MSN, you want | |
573 this release. If you've suddenly found yourself unable to connect to | |
574 Yahoo!, you want this release too. The "neat goodies" will be in the | |

583 hectic around the gaim house hold. This release isn't as complete | |
584 as I had hoped, but I promised to get something out. There's some | |
585 neat goodies in mind for the next release, right Sean? :-) | |

696 job which required moving across the country. I'm finally back | |
697 online. Once I manage to actually get a desk at home I'll be | |

815 on my list of repairs is the napster plugin. It works -- sorta -- | |
816 sometimes. Heh. As all of you probably know already, our Oscar | |
817 support was broken yesterday. There's a little battle going on | |
818 between AOL and Jabber and we caught a bullet during the crossfire. | |

1199 | 930 Rob: I messed up. Oh well, it's fixed. |
931 | |
1289 | 932 0.11.0-pre1 (12/03/2000): |
1199 | 933 Rob: Hey guys! Guess what!? Yup, you're correct! It's the pre1 |
934 release of 0.11.0. We have all sorts of goodies in this release! | |
935 Check out the ChangeLog file. As always if you find any bugs, | |
936 please report them on www.sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/ | |
1195 | 937 |
938 You may find several small bugs as this is still a prerelease. | |
1192 | 939 |
1199 | 940 You may want to note that my IRC plugin does not have full |
941 functionality as of yet. All of the important / commands will be | |
942 added before the final release. Also, if someone could send me | |
943 some good buddylist pixmaps for the irc plugin then I'd much | |
944 appreciate it. Thanks to everyone who made this new release possible! | |
1194 | 945 |
1195 | 946 If you have any ideas, comments, or suggestions, please let us know |
1199 | 947 either by e-mail or via the source forge message board at the URL |
948 above. :) | |

1195 | 951 Eric: So what was Yay! For Gaim!? Yay was the codename for the |
952 Yahoo plugin. The whole point of all of these changes was I wanted to | |
953 make a proof-of-concept plugin that would let Gaim sign into Yahoo. It | |
954 turned out to be pretty much impossible with the old code. So, | |
955 Rob and I hacked gaim so we could do just that. There's now a whole new | |
956 class of plugins, Protocol Plugins, that let users dynamically add new | |
957 protocols to Gaim. Just load the plugin, and create a new account that | |
958 uses that protocol, and you're set! Yay! (Oscar and TOC are both still | |
959 static. Gaim is, after all, primarily an AIM client.) | |

1126 | |
170 | 1127 0.9.15: |
219 | 1128 Hey boy's and girls. There's not much to say here this time. |
1129 We're loving Southern California, the new job's going great. We just | |
1130 got our company website up and the product development is going pretty | |
1131 smooth. Life's pretty sweet now. | |
1132 | |
1133 We've hacked up all kinds of goodies for you in 0.9.15. There's | |
1134 some file transfer (receive) support for those of you who have been | |
1135 wanting it for a while. There's some other misc. goodies tossed in as | |
1136 well. Enjoy!! Oh yeah, we need a new website. Come up with a sweet | |
1137 design and get in touch with me. The current site is at: | |
1138 http://www.marko.net/gaim | |
1139 | |
1140 Thanks much! | |
1141 | |
170 | 1142 |
76 | 1143 0.9.14: |
104 | 1144 Well, there's a few random hacks and fixes in here, along with |
1145 a little suprise. You guessed it, kiddos, support for plugins! Happy | |
1146 hacking! | |
76 | 1147 |
56 | 1148 0.9.13: |
69 | 1149 Not much to say for this release. Bug fixes, That's all. Look |
1150 for the goodies I promised in 0.9.13 to appear in 0.9.14 which should be | |
1151 released very soon now. | |
56 | 1152 |
71 | 1153 By the way, our CVS is now hosted over at source forge. Go check |
1154 it out at http://www.sourceforge.net. Please check there before submitting | |
1155 any bug reports (You can read our CVS comments to see if we have fixed any | |
1156 problems). | |
1157 | |
7 | 1158 0.9.12: |
25 | 1159 Well guys, looks like we got some nifty things in this version. |
1160 TrueType Fonts are supported for those XFSTT buffs out there (or whatever | |
1161 else you use). A crap load of those plaguing memory leaks have FINALLY been | |
1162 fixed. My brother, Jeramey, and a new friend Peter Teichan helped stomp | |
1163 those babies out. A rad guy by the name of Eric Warmenhoven has been | |
1164 really sweet lately and has all but rewritten the Gnome Applet support :). | |
1165 He submitted patch after patch. I finally got annoyed with him (just kidding bud) | |
1166 and gave him CVS access. Look for Gnome Applet support in Gaim to start improving. | |
1167 That's about all for now. I wanted to get this release out there. File Receive | |
1168 support will be in 0.9.13 which is due out soon. | |

0 | 1170 0.9.11: |
1171 Jeramey got a new Comfy Chair! Its very very comfy! Whee! | |
1172 Jim also had a little hyper-drunken moment and started hacking away at | |

1173 a new configuration format for Gaim. Looks like we're running .gaimrc |
0 | 1174 version 1 now. Gotta love it. I got bored and hacked in a couple font |
1175 properties that will, in time, contain more features. That's about it | |
1176 for this version -- cept for that memory leak we fixed. Shush! We're | |
1177 not plumbers! -- rob | |
1178 | |
1179 ** Extra special update ** | |
1180 | |
1181 Well guys, it looks like we all stopped working on gaim, moved to California, | |
1182 and took up a new job. Don't worry though, those beach bums out here havent | |
1183 worn off on us yet. I've decided to pick up the Gaim torch myself and continue | |
1184 development ont he prohect. Hopefully we wont have any more five month braks in | |
1185 the project. Sorry about that, guys :) | |
1186 | |
1187 0.9.10: | |
1188 Umm. Dont ask. Silly memory leak. For those of you who | |
1189 wondered, you were losing about 256 bytes every 25 seconds for each | |
1190 person you have on your contact list. Make fun of us. Better yet .. | |
1191 Send us beer. We'll do better :) | |
1192 | |
1193 0.9.9: | |
1194 Welp, All of you boys and girls who run Mandrake and have some | |

1195 problems with Gaim working properly, please check out the FAQ file. It |
0 | 1196 contains a nice fix submitted by one of our users. I hope this works for |
1197 you guys! | |
1198 Jim appears to have intoxicated himself. This is, as always, a | |
1199 Good Thing (tm). His late-night adventure with the liquid-bread food group | |
1200 lead to the birth of a nice little feature called `The Lag-O-Meter'. Dont | |
1201 ask, just try it out :). It is pretty pointless if you have a super-fast | |
1202 connection but if you are a modem user, like many of us are, then try it out. | |
1203 There's also some idle preferences and some other little random | |
1204 bug fixes. Check'em out yo :) | |
1205 | |
1206 0.9.8: | |
1207 Get Along Lil' Doggies. Heh. Looks like we have yet another new | |
1208 version of gaim for you guys to play with. Be gentle now, it has a few | |
1209 new fetures. The HTML widget is now more robust and we have *da da da* | |
1210 HTTP proxy support. | |
1211 Oh By The Way, Do not pay too much attention to what we are doing | |
1212 with this release. We are all a little bit happy tonight. You must love | |
1213 life. This is a special release of gaim. We will be releasing some wonderful | |
1214 photographs soon .. or perhaps if we get the bloody webcam working then we | |
1215 will take a couple of quick snapshots. | |

1216 Looks like the Gaim developers convention (cool name huh) that we |
0 | 1217 had this weekend in Auburn, AL went wonderfully :). yum yum yum. Hahahah. Oh |
1218 by the way. Beware of insecure rednecks in the deli. Bad things. | |
1219 In (non)related news, Jeramey could not successfully slaughter the | |
1220 one pound hamburger that he ordered. (I think he could have done it but he | |
1221 wasn't feeling very well at the time). | |
1222 Oh Yes, New Logo Too :) You likes? Thanks, Naru! | |
1223 Just a little side-note: it looks like we didnt make the release that | |
1224 we had expected during the Gaim Convention. Maybe we partied too much? I am | |
1225 not sure. I remember watching the sun rise before I went to bed, though. | |
1226 Oh well. Here's your release! Enjoy! | |
1227 By The Way, we have uploaded our party pictures to a website. | |
1228 http://www.dorky.net/gaim/party/ They are nothing spectacular but I hope you | |
1229 enjoy them! :). | |
1230 | |
1231 0.9.7: | |
1232 Well, boys and girls, it's that time again! Yup, time for the good | |
1233 release fairy to come bless us with her infinite wisdom and divine presence. | |
1234 Umm, yeah, something like that. Anyways, this release has several little | |
1235 "bad" network fixes (as Jim likes to say) and a couple touch-ups to a few | |
1236 other features. It also features preliminary oscar support. Thanks to Jim | |
1237 and Adam ("the libfaim guy") hehe :) We have also corrected a problem with | |
1238 gaim not wainting to correctly save your password if you have an underscore | |
1239 in it. Thanks to w1za7d for pointing out the underscore problem. ' and \ | |
1240 have also been fixed in passwords. :o) | |
1241 | |
1242 0.9.6: | |
1243 Sorry about the little segfaulting bugs in the past release. Rob | |
1244 is stupid. :). Anyways, they have been patched up and a couple new features | |
1245 have been added. I hope you guys enjoy. | |
1246 | |
1247 0.9.5: | |
1248 Well we added a myriad of new features to this release. (A lot of | |
1249 small buggie fixes too.) If you need a detailed list just check out the | |
1250 ChangeLog. We now have a new webpage design and have added a FAQ to the | |
1251 distribution. Before coming to us with any problems please take a quick | |
1252 look through the FAQ to make sure we havent already covered your question. | |
1253 Also, thanks to our beloved Web Monkey, FlynOrange, we have all | |
1254 learned the true power of foam weapons, slinkies, and whoopie cushions. Hmm | |
1255 gotta love those pranks, eh? | |
1256 | |
1257 0.8.0: | |
1258 Well, just starting the NEWS file. I'll try to remember what's new | |
1259 from the last version. Hmmm. BIG code reorg. Import/export, buddy pounce | |
1260 among the major new features. Autoconf script too, which is a big win. | |
1261 Apologies to those who submitted patches which haven't made it in.. I | |
1262 promise, the next version! This code reorg took up a lot of my time, and I | |
1263 want to get it out there. | |
