This will either leak a file pointer, or not. I'm thinking that when you
close the first handler, it closes the file pointer, from my reading of the
docs. This apparently fixes SimGuy's NSS crash.

6134 | 94 Sean: Although I tend to go right here in the two slot in NEWS, |
95 we don't always commit in this order. This is the third time I've | |
96 rewritten this because the jerks below me keep commiting while I'm | |
97 writing causing mass conflictination. Grrr. Stupid jerks. Anyway, | |
98 this is Gaim 0.65. Like other Gaim releases, this allows you to | |
99 converse with people far away over the "Internet." That's about it. | |
100 It's really not that interesting. In fact, I wouldn't even bother | |
101 reading the other people's NEWS. It's all boring. There's some | |
102 crap about forest fires and fangs and claws. It's really boring. | |
103 Great, now Luke just committed NEWS causing more conflictination. | |
104 I wouldn't bother reading his either. Oh, and I don't want to thank | |
105 Megan (Cae) or Kevin (SimGuy). They're stupid jerks too. Grrr... | |
106 | |
6129 | 107 Mark: I actually did stuff for this release. Go me. I probably |
108 shouldn't speak for all of us, but I'm going to anyway: We feel that | |
109 this release is one of Gaim's best. It should be relatively bug | |
6135 | 110 free, and the code is cleaner than ever, thanks to lots of work by |
6129 | 111 Christian and Nathan. We had some help from a few civilians |
112 finding and fixing bugs. Thanks to Megan (Cae), Ka-Hing Cheung | |
6130 | 113 (javabsp), and Kevin Stange (SimGuy) for their work. Man, I was just |
6129 | 114 looking at Sean's NEWS entry for 0.64--that's talent. Also, stay |
115 in school. Just say no. Only you can prevent forest fires. | |

6133 | 139 Luke: Wow! Finally releasing 0.65! Christian, Nathan, and Mark have |
140 worked really hard for this release, all the credit goes to them. | |
141 The new preferences are awesome, and there are more bugs fixed for | |
142 this release than in the last 3 or 4 releases. Your MSN should work | |
143 reliably again, your preferences saved, your accounts resort, the | |
144 list goes on and on. A couple preferences, most notably your buddy | |
145 list sorting preference won't be imported, but almost all of them | |
146 will be and its probly a good idea for you to take a second look | |
147 through preferences again anyway, alot of you are starting to | |
148 forget that things are optional again. :-) | |
149 | |
6137 | 150 Nathan: I think I did something for this release a while ago. I've |
151 got a mailbox full of commit emails, and some have my name on them, | |
152 so I must have done something, right? Probably some minor jabber stuff, | |
153 and lots of crazy bugfixes. It was a team effort, I'd like to thank the | |
154 academy, our producer Rob Flynn, and of course all the fans. You rock. | |

168 week at work. Friday is the end of the crunch. Hooray!! Thanks for | |
169 all of your hard work, guys :). | |
170 | |
5555 | 171 Sean: Unlike every other time we say, "the next release will be loaded |
172 with cool new features, this time, we really mean it. In fact, they're | |
173 already in CVS (don't use CVS). The only obvious new feature for 0.64 | |
174 is buddy list sorting. This has been much requested and can be set in | |
175 the buddy list preferences. You can sort by name, by status, and even | |
176 by log file size--putting people you talk to most at the top. Plugins | |
177 can even easily add their own sorting methods. It's all very cool. I | |
5559 | 178 want to thank Luke and Ka-Hing for their initial work on it. And yes, |
5555 | 179 I did make my entire NEWS entry justified on purpose. |

211 fixed, and a goodly number of the translations are more up to date | |
212 than they were in earlier releases. There are some other significant | |
213 changes, but they are mostly backend stuff, yay for core/ui splits ;-) | |

5410 | 235 Nathan: It seems like 0.62 was forever and a day ago. I had to look |
236 at the ChangeLog to remember what I did. Apparently I made it so you | |
237 can put chats in your buddy list. And then I tweaked a bunch of stuff | |
238 and fixed a bunch of crashes. Then exams came, and then I went home | |
239 for a week and left my laptop's power cable here at school, so I didn't | |
240 get anything done. Jabber will get all sorts of fun new stuff for | |
241 the next release. Really. ;-) | |

247 tough and stuff, but the rest of the guys have really been doing great | |

5196 | 257 Luke: I didn't do much here besides the odd translation patch and a couple |
258 bug fix patches. This is primarily a bug fix release, and much needed at | |
259 that. Didn't get a chance to write sorting code, work has been busy. | |
260 Hopeefully it will happen for 0.63. | |
261 | |
5197 | 262 Mark: Gaim is coming along quite beautimously. I'm going to eat |
263 my Pop-tarts now. | |
264 | |
5198 | 265 Nathan: oh dot sixty two. There are a lot of bugs fixed in this release, |
266 and one major new feature. Our Jabber plugin now supports XHTML-IM. In | |
267 plain english, this means that you can now format your jabber messages, | |
268 and other people will see the formatting. GtkIMHTML still needs some | |
269 work to get it to parse valid XHTML-IM better, but that will come in time. | |
270 That time would come sooner if my CS prof accepted "I was hacking on Gaim" | |
271 as a valid excuse for an extension ;-) | |
272 | |
5058 | 273 0.61 (04/07/2003): |
5059 | 274 Rob: Nathan commited his news first. However, I'm cooler so I'm putting |
275 my entry above his. Yeah, so, there were some DnD issues with 0.60. I | |
276 blame it on the rain. It was falling, falling. I blame it on the | |
277 faucet. It drips all night. | |
278 | |
5073 | 279 Sean: I committed my news after Rob. I'm cooler than Nathan (by far) but |
280 not as cool as Rob. So I go here. Actually, I didn't do anything since | |
281 0.60 other than commit some other peoples patches. The one from Dave Camp | |
5079 | 282 is cool. How 'bout this snow? Isn't that crazy? Oh, and thanks to |
283 everyone who wished me a happy birthday. | |
5073 | 284 |
5058 | 285 Nathan: You want frequent releases? You got 'em ;-) Chip wrote some |
286 cool new pounce stuff, and things shouldn't get weird when you drag | |
287 groups and buddies around. It's bad enough having 1 of some of my | |
288 buddies on my list, I definitely don't need duplicates. Being that I | |
289 have class in the morning, I'll just raise my juice glass for this one. | |

299 thing in this release is the group re-ordering bug fix, having that fixed | |

311 to go out and buy a case of beer. My roommate is downstairs right | |
312 now pouring me a shot of his choice. Everyone, raise your beers if | |
313 you've got them. It's been a cool almost 10-months of development. | |
314 I hope you all enjoy. Drink'em if you got'em! | |

5024 | 316 Sean: I'm writing this 3 minutes before my 21st birthday. Nobody can |
317 believe we're finally ready to relase 0.60. Many thanks to everyone | |
318 who helped out; I'm convinced that Gaim 0.60 is the best IM client to | |
319 date (only to be bested by 0.61). There's WAY too much stuff to mention. | |
320 Even the ChangeLog is somewhat incomplete. Yay, I'm 21 now! Everyone | |
321 enjoy! :) | |

324 after everyone, so here I am. "sexy" is the only word that can be used | |

348 good reason either. Rob and I just haven't been able to get together | |
349 to do it. But now we have. Aside from some Jabber changes and some | |
350 crucial MSN fixes, most of this release's changes are transparent, | |
351 but none-the-less important. Well get some better changes when my | |

359 didn't go out on time. Oh well. I would like to welcome | |
360 Jim Seymour aboard the development team. He's going to be taking | |

374 a few fixes, secure msn hotmail logins, blah blah blah. As Sean | |
375 said, the next release will be cooler. If only you could read | |

3179 | 378 Sean: Nothing too special here, but a critical Yahoo fix that |

386 I wanted to move to using GtkCTree. I think they're pretty. | |
387 Unfortunately, GtkCTree sucks. After a little digging through | |
388 the code, I managed to molest GtkTree into looking like | |
389 GtkCTree. Thanks to everyone that helped track down that one | |
390 annoying style problem. | |
391 | |
392 Sean: Hello. This is another minor release while Rob and I finish | |
393 up on some bigger projects. We're reworking a lot of the UI to make | |
394 it easier to use, nicer looking, and more compatible with gtk2. | |
395 I've also been trying to bring the Yahoo plugin up to date, so it | |
396 will work for Indian users and avoid a potential problem in the near | |
397 future. | |
3114 | 398 |
3113 | 399 0.55 (03/29/2002): |
400 Rob: 0.55 is here. I've been away for a few days on business. Sean | |
401 has been on Spring Break. Therefore, this release is mostly a patch | |
402 release. It does fix some bugs and makes a few thing slightly cooler, | |
403 so it's better in that aspect, I suppose. Enjoy. | |
404 | |
3110 | 405 Sean: This is mostly a bugfix release. I'm on Spring Break, not |
406 doing any coding at all. But lots of people sent in great patches | |
407 anyway. Thanks guys! | |
3058 | 408 |
3053 | 409 0.54 (03/14/2002): |
410 Rob: Well, here we are. 0.54. We got a lot of fun things in this | |
411 release. Better working SSI, Image sending, protocol specific | |
412 smiley faces, and a whole lot of triscuits. *gobble* | |
413 | |
3054 | 414 Sean: We fixed a lot of bugs in this one, and probably introduced |
415 a bunch too. ;) We were both really busy, and did all the coding | |
416 late at night when we were tired, so if something isn't working, | |
417 it's probably just tired code. Enjoy the triscuits! | |
2994 | 418 |
2993 | 419 0.53 (02/28/2002): |
420 Rob: Well, we missed yesterday's release. That's Okay, I head a | |
421 nasty headache. You can all just deal. ;-) | |
422 | |
423 | |
424 Sean: Neat Goodies! Whee!! Oscar got a lot of great additions. | |
425 It can do Screen Name formatting, it can save and store your buddy | |
426 list on the server, it can do typing notifications in Direct | |
427 Connections, and yes, it can receive IM Images! Sending images will | |
428 be added in the next release. MSN and Yahoo! can do typing | |
429 notification too. Hooray! | |
430 | |
2978 | 431 |
2961 | 432 0.52 (02/17/2002): |
2965 | 433 Rob: Well, after a long delay we're finally ready for another release. |
434 I finally got settled into my new apartment, the new job is going | |
435 well, and I finally have internet connectivity again. You can expect | |
436 us to be back on our usually bi-monthly schedule. Enjoy these fixen, | |
437 as they resolve a few connectivity issues. :-) | |
438 | |
439 Sean: It looks like things are back on track now. Eric left which is | |
440 sad. He's done so much for Gaim, and I know we're all thankful. | |
441 Thanks Eric! I'll be stepping in and do more development, but I can | |
442 never replace Eric. This release fixes a long-standing problem in | |
443 MSN. If you've gotten errors when trying to connect to MSN, you want | |
444 this release. If you've suddenly found yourself unable to connect to | |
445 Yahoo!, you want this release too. The "neat goodies" will be in the | |
446 next release ;) | |
447 | |
2967 | 448 Rob: Operation Evil does not exist! ;-) |
2961 | 449 |
2935 | 450 |
2933 | 451 0.51 (01/24/2002): |
2934 | 452 Rob: Well, here we go. I FINALLY got around to making a release |
453 after over a month, Sorry for the delay, all. Things got really | |
454 hectic around the gaim house hold. This release isn't as complete | |
455 as I had hoped, but I promised to get something out. There's some | |
456 neat goodies in mind for the next release, right Sean? :-) | |

565 story, but essentially, my company layed off a bunch of people, | |
566 myself included, due to poor management. I've taken a new | |
567 job which required moving across the country. I'm finally back | |
568 online. Once I manage to actually get a desk at home I'll be | |

768 looks like it was needed. That's not necessarially a bad thing, | |
769 mind you. It just means you get to see more goodies! | |

771 This release includes some other fun features. See the ChangeLog | |
772 for more information. Also found in this wonderful release is | |
773 an MSN plugin. For all of you who have been holding onto Windows | |
774 simply because you have friends on MSN Messenger that you don't want | |
775 to leave, this plugin is for you! :) | |

778 SourceForge bug report forum at | |

780 Eric and I to handle the bugs and will prevent either one of us | |
781 from losing the bug reports that are sent via AIM :-) | |

1199 | 804 Rob: Hey guys! Guess what!? Yup, you're correct! It's the pre1 |
805 release of 0.11.0. We have all sorts of goodies in this release! | |
806 Check out the ChangeLog file. As always if you find any bugs, | |
807 please report them on www.sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/ | |
1195 | 808 |
809 You may find several small bugs as this is still a prerelease. | |
1192 | 810 |
1199 | 811 You may want to note that my IRC plugin does not have full |
812 functionality as of yet. All of the important / commands will be | |
813 added before the final release. Also, if someone could send me | |
814 some good buddylist pixmaps for the irc plugin then I'd much | |
815 appreciate it. Thanks to everyone who made this new release possible! | |
1194 | 816 |
1195 | 817 If you have any ideas, comments, or suggestions, please let us know |

1195 | 822 Eric: So what was Yay! For Gaim!? Yay was the codename for the |
823 Yahoo plugin. The whole point of all of these changes was I wanted to | |
824 make a proof-of-concept plugin that would let Gaim sign into Yahoo. It | |
825 turned out to be pretty much impossible with the old code. So, | |
826 Rob and I hacked gaim so we could do just that. There's now a whole new | |
827 class of plugins, Protocol Plugins, that let users dynamically add new | |
828 protocols to Gaim. Just load the plugin, and create a new account that | |
829 uses that protocol, and you're set! Yay! (Oscar and TOC are both still | |
830 static. Gaim is, after all, primarily an AIM client.) | |

219 | 999 Hey boy's and girls. There's not much to say here this time. |
1000 We're loving Southern California, the new job's going great. We just | |
1001 got our company website up and the product development is going pretty | |
1002 smooth. Life's pretty sweet now. | |
1003 | |
1004 We've hacked up all kinds of goodies for you in 0.9.15. There's | |
1005 some file transfer (receive) support for those of you who have been | |
1006 wanting it for a while. There's some other misc. goodies tossed in as | |
1007 well. Enjoy!! Oh yeah, we need a new website. Come up with a sweet | |
1008 design and get in touch with me. The current site is at: | |
1009 http://www.marko.net/gaim | |
1010 | |
1011 Thanks much! | |

76 | 1014 0.9.14: |
104 | 1015 Well, there's a few random hacks and fixes in here, along with |
1016 a little suprise. You guessed it, kiddos, support for plugins! Happy | |
1017 hacking! | |
76 | 1018 |
56 | 1019 0.9.13: |
69 | 1020 Not much to say for this release. Bug fixes, That's all. Look |
1021 for the goodies I promised in 0.9.13 to appear in 0.9.14 which should be | |
1022 released very soon now. | |
56 | 1023 |
71 | 1024 By the way, our CVS is now hosted over at source forge. Go check |
1025 it out at http://www.sourceforge.net. Please check there before submitting | |
1026 any bug reports (You can read our CVS comments to see if we have fixed any | |
1027 problems). | |
1028 | |
7 | 1029 0.9.12: |
25 | 1030 Well guys, looks like we got some nifty things in this version. |
1031 TrueType Fonts are supported for those XFSTT buffs out there (or whatever | |
1032 else you use). A crap load of those plaguing memory leaks have FINALLY been | |
1033 fixed. My brother, Jeramey, and a new friend Peter Teichan helped stomp | |
1034 those babies out. A rad guy by the name of Eric Warmenhoven has been | |
1035 really sweet lately and has all but rewritten the Gnome Applet support :). | |
1036 He submitted patch after patch. I finally got annoyed with him (just kidding bud) | |
1037 and gave him CVS access. Look for Gnome Applet support in Gaim to start improving. | |
1038 That's about all for now. I wanted to get this release out there. File Receive | |
1039 support will be in 0.9.13 which is due out soon. | |

1044 a new configuration format for Gaim. Looks like we're running .gaimrc |
0 | 1045 version 1 now. Gotta love it. I got bored and hacked in a couple font |
1046 properties that will, in time, contain more features. That's about it | |

1050 ** Extra special update ** | |
1051 | |
1052 Well guys, it looks like we all stopped working on gaim, moved to California, | |
1053 and took up a new job. Don't worry though, those beach bums out here havent | |
1054 worn off on us yet. I've decided to pick up the Gaim torch myself and continue | |
1055 development ont he prohect. Hopefully we wont have any more five month braks in | |
1056 the project. Sorry about that, guys :) | |
1057 | |
1058 0.9.10: | |
1059 Umm. Dont ask. Silly memory leak. For those of you who | |
1060 wondered, you were losing about 256 bytes every 25 seconds for each | |
1061 person you have on your contact list. Make fun of us. Better yet .. | |

1066 problems with Gaim working properly, please check out the FAQ file. It |
0 | 1067 contains a nice fix submitted by one of our users. I hope this works for |
1068 you guys! | |
1069 Jim appears to have intoxicated himself. This is, as always, a | |
1070 Good Thing (tm). His late-night adventure with the liquid-bread food group | |
1071 lead to the birth of a nice little feature called `The Lag-O-Meter'. Dont | |
1072 ask, just try it out :). It is pretty pointless if you have a super-fast | |
1073 connection but if you are a modem user, like many of us are, then try it out. | |
1074 There's also some idle preferences and some other little random | |
1075 bug fixes. Check'em out yo :) | |
1076 | |
1077 0.9.8: | |
1078 Get Along Lil' Doggies. Heh. Looks like we have yet another new | |
1079 version of gaim for you guys to play with. Be gentle now, it has a few | |
1080 new fetures. The HTML widget is now more robust and we have *da da da* | |
1081 HTTP proxy support. | |
1082 Oh By The Way, Do not pay too much attention to what we are doing | |
1083 with this release. We are all a little bit happy tonight. You must love | |
1084 life. This is a special release of gaim. We will be releasing some wonderful | |
1085 photographs soon .. or perhaps if we get the bloody webcam working then we | |
1086 will take a couple of quick snapshots. | |

1087 Looks like the Gaim developers convention (cool name huh) that we |
0 | 1088 had this weekend in Auburn, AL went wonderfully :). yum yum yum. Hahahah. Oh |
1089 by the way. Beware of insecure rednecks in the deli. Bad things. | |
1090 In (non)related news, Jeramey could not successfully slaughter the | |
1091 one pound hamburger that he ordered. (I think he could have done it but he | |
1092 wasn't feeling very well at the time). | |
1093 Oh Yes, New Logo Too :) You likes? Thanks, Naru! | |
1094 Just a little side-note: it looks like we didnt make the release that | |
1095 we had expected during the Gaim Convention. Maybe we partied too much? I am | |
1096 not sure. I remember watching the sun rise before I went to bed, though. | |
1097 Oh well. Here's your release! Enjoy! | |
1098 By The Way, we have uploaded our party pictures to a website. | |

1103 Well, boys and girls, it's that time again! Yup, time for the good | |
1104 release fairy to come bless us with her infinite wisdom and divine presence. | |
1105 Umm, yeah, something like that. Anyways, this release has several little | |
1106 "bad" network fixes (as Jim likes to say) and a couple touch-ups to a few | |
1107 other features. It also features preliminary oscar support. Thanks to Jim | |
1108 and Adam ("the libfaim guy") hehe :) We have also corrected a problem with | |
1109 gaim not wainting to correctly save your password if you have an underscore | |
1110 in it. Thanks to w1za7d for pointing out the underscore problem. ' and \ | |
1111 have also been fixed in passwords. :o) | |

1114 Sorry about the little segfaulting bugs in the past release. Rob | |

1116 have been added. I hope you guys enjoy. | |
1117 | |
1118 0.9.5: | |
1119 Well we added a myriad of new features to this release. (A lot of | |
1120 small buggie fixes too.) If you need a detailed list just check out the | |
1121 ChangeLog. We now have a new webpage design and have added a FAQ to the | |
1122 distribution. Before coming to us with any problems please take a quick | |
1123 look through the FAQ to make sure we havent already covered your question. | |
1124 Also, thanks to our beloved Web Monkey, FlynOrange, we have all | |
1125 learned the true power of foam weapons, slinkies, and whoopie cushions. Hmm | |
1126 gotta love those pranks, eh? | |

1128 0.8.0: | |
1129 Well, just starting the NEWS file. I'll try to remember what's new | |
1130 from the last version. Hmmm. BIG code reorg. Import/export, buddy pounce | |
1131 among the major new features. Autoconf script too, which is a big win. | |
1132 Apologies to those who submitted patches which haven't made it in.. I | |
1133 promise, the next version! This code reorg took up a lot of my time, and I | |
1134 want to get it out there. | |
