3 2.0.1 (5/24/2007):
4 Sean: 2.0.1! Three weeks later, as scheduled! It is so nice to have
5 regular, frequent, releases again! This is a bugfix release; We have
6 fixed over 100 issues reported to us at http://developer.pidgin.im.
7 Thanks to everyone for their great work, and look for the next release
8 in another three weeks!

10 Stu: Lots'o'fixes in this. I don't know how you users find so many
11 things for us to fix. 24 hours in a day (sadly). 24 is divisible by the
12 sum of its digits and by their product. It is the smallest composite
13 number, the product of whose divisors is a cube.

15 Luke: I requested that we have a bug fix release, and so we have!
16 Many, though unfortunately not all, of the reports that have been
17 submitted to us since 2.0.0 have been fixed now, and so you should
18 all have a much more stable experience with this release. I also
19 want to thank the many users who have resubmitted their reports
20 as we close out the old Source Forge bug tracker. If all goes well,
21 your report will get the attention it deserves as we continue to
22 work on Pidgin, Finch, and libpurple.
23
24 Nathan: A ton of fixes have gone into this release. The feedback
25 we've gotten on 2.0.0 has been incredible. Hopefully we've resolved
26 most of the critical issues with 2.0.1. If we haven't, I'm sure
27 our wonderful users will let us hear about it. I seem to be
28 forgetting something...oh, right, I haven't promised any cool new
29 features in the next release! So, I promise at least one cool new
30 feature in the next release...you just might have to adjust your
31 definition of 'cool' to get it.

33 Etan: Perl plugins now have access to almost all of the savedstatus
34 API functions. I also removed a couple of the preferences from the
35 Pidgin GTK+ Theme Control plugin which should help many of the people
36 for whom the configuration dialog size was a problem. The removed
37 preferences no longer had the effects they were added to have anyway.
