37 Ethan: Not to be too "me-too", but I have to say that I'm really
38 excited about the project's new name and identity, and glad to be
39 out of the legal mess. We're pushing beta 7 with all of the
40 branding and organizational changes that have been going on for
41 the last few months, so there are likely to be some snags --
42 please help us out by trying beta 7, searching for any bugs you
43 find in the bug tracker at http://developer.pidgin.im/, and
44 documenting them if they are unknown or you can provide new
45 information. Help us make 2.0.0 final a release to be remembered
46 (in a good way)! I'd like to give huge thanks to all of the
47 developers, our steadfast supporters, the crazy patch writers, and
48 everyone else who has made this transition to Pidgin possible, and
49 the improvements that go along with it. I'd like to extend a
50 special thanks to Sean, for leading us through the legal issues
51 and taking care of all of the paperwork and overhead that no one
52 wants to deal with.
