Slash commands with "w" (and "W") ignore space
between it and the next command. This causes the
trailing space to either: get treated as the first
character of of an immediately following "s" (or "S")
argument, or get treated as the entire contents of any
following "w" (or "W") arguments.
This patch of his, #982083, fixes those issues.

4 Sean: We've moved to a three-week release cycle which we'll | |
5 hopefully be able to keep up more realistically than a two-week | |
6 cycle. Yahoo! went and broke last night, but it's fixed now thanks | |
7 to a quick fix sent in by Cerulean Studios this morning. Reports say | |
8 they'll continue to try to break us, though, so don't be surprised | |
9 if your Yahoo cuts out again. | |
9385 | 10 |
9384 | 11 Luke: I was really distracted this cycle, I want to thank my co- |
9387 | 12 developers and our crazy patch writers for keeping things going. |
9384 | 13 We have a fairly long changelog for you this release, including some |
14 nice bug fixes and some much-requested new features, the ChangeLog | |
15 has all the details there of course. Enjoy! | |

9385 | 21 Tim: This release brings us /commands in the core, which hopefully |
22 works better, and Yahoo! buddy icons. Thanks to all the people I | |
23 bugged for packet captures, like Simguy, Bleeter, and odl. Yahoo! | |
24 broke again, so I did a little last minute work on the web | |
25 messenger stuff, but then Cerulean Studios was cool and fixed the | |
26 problem already, so all that code's disabled. I also finally added | |
27 the Yahoo! Japan support, for those of you with Yahoo! Japan | |
28 accounts. | |
9386 | 29 |
30 Mark: I fixed that icon animation thing that caused Gaim to lock-up. | |
31 I also stepped on something at the beach and I think there might be | |
32 a little rock or something in my foot now. | |
33 | |
9390 | 34 Nathan: I've been really busy, what with having a new job and all. |
35 I didn't think I had done anything, but apparently I fixed some | |
36 Jabber stuff, and some IPv6 stuff. I must have been sleepcoding | |
37 or something, because I haven't had time for such things. Ah well, | |
38 enjoy this release. We'll see what I can get to in the next 3 weeks. | |
39 | |
9124 | 40 0.78 (05/30/2004): |
9102 | 41 Luke: A very long time, once again, since the last release. I think |
42 its mostly worth it. A few of you will still have trouble with msn | |
43 but we've worked out a number of bugs even there. Thanks to heroic | |
44 efforts on the part of Mark, we closed 400 some odd reports this | |
45 month. We are also welcoming Tim to the project, a very active | |
46 crazy patch writer who has brought massive improvements to WYSIWYG | |
47 and direct im this release. Again, it still won't work for every | |
48 one, but it will work for more people than it used to. Most | |
49 noticably, this release brings a LARGE simplicfication of the | |
50 preferences available. Please don't complain if your favorite | |
51 preference is no longer there. Take some time to think about | |
52 how and if it could be useful to a majority of people who use | |
53 Gaim in ways nothing like you. You'll find that the answer will | |
54 usually be that the preference isn't all that important. | |
55 | |
9103 | 56 Tim: I continued with the other crazy patch writers in fixing those |
57 WYSIWYG bugs. Then they went and made me a developer. Which is cool. | |
58 They told me I could commit WYSIWYG and Yahoo! changes. So I went | |
59 and fixed IM Image and Direct Connect in AIM for some reason. I also | |
9106 | 60 added some new Yahoo! smileys at least. Also you change your link |
61 color in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file now. I might work on some of those | |
62 new Yahoo! features for next release, like buddy icons. But don't | |
63 count on it. Thanks to everyone who congratulated me. And thanks | |
64 to all our Crazy Patch Writers, who now expect me to apply all their | |
65 Crazy Patches. | |

9106 | 77 Gary: Congrats to Tim, no more competing for most ChangeLog entries. |
78 This means you _should_ be winning every release. Anyways, I didn't | |
79 finish nearly as much as I wanted to for this release but all of that | |
80 and then some should appear in 0.79. | |
81 | |
9108 | 82 Sean: I'll write my entry down here tonight. Removing preferences |
9395 | 83 was my big crusade this week, and the team did a great job at it, |
84 but I still have a nagging feeling that our preferences are still | |
85 overwhelming. Everyone's been doing a real great job; it's entirely | |
86 my fault we keep failing to meet our three-week schedule. Send your | |
87 complaints this way. | |
9108 | 88 |
9114 | 89 Nathan: I really didn't do much thanks to exams, and graduation, and all |
90 of that fun stuff. For next release, I'll have all new excuses, like my | |
91 new job, or maybe something I haven't even thought of yet. Oh yeah, and | |
92 a big warm welcome to Tim! | |
93 | |
8762 | 94 0.77 (04/22/2004): |
95 Sean: We're back to a somewhat regular release cycle now. Hooray! | |
9395 | 96 WYSIWYG is much improved in this release, and you can now copy and |
97 paste rich text to and from Gaim and other applications (see: Mozilla, | |
98 Evolution OpenOffice). Also, Novell has released their first release | |
99 of their GroupWise plugin, included in this release. Good stuff all | |
100 around. | |
8762 | 101 |
8763 | 102 Luke: Only a week "late" this time around, much nicer than the delay |
103 before the last release. Anyway, this release sees a HUGE number of | |
104 improvements to the WYSIWYG support, much thanks to all involved. If | |
105 you weren't impressed before, you should be now! This release also | |
106 sees the end of our TOC support, no one has been working on this in | |
107 some time and its causing problems. DON'T USE IT!. Also plugin | |
108 authors will want to take note of the fact that the plugin api version | |
109 changed. A nice solid release for you all :-) | |
110 | |
8764 | 111 Ethan: Once again I thought about doing some things and committed |
112 things that other people did. This development model is awesome. I | |
113 helped Mark refactor some stuff and our collective code ownership | |
114 helped us utilize a coherent system metaphor during our pair program- | |
115 ming sessions. It was extremely extreme. Look for some hard crypto | |
116 lovin' from yet another crazy contributor in the near future... | |
117 | |
8765 | 118 Ka-Hing: I actually did something for this release... or rather, the |
119 previous release, but LSchiere2 didn't commit that until this release. | |
120 So blame him. System logging is back, so you can log people's signon/ | |
121 off/away/idle-ness again. There may be bugs with it, I don't know, not | |
122 like I use it. I will try to work on something that I will actually use | |
123 for the next release. | |
124 | |
125 Etan: Looking for someone to pair program with. | |

8540 | 135 0.76 (04/01/2004): |
8548 | 136 Sean: Yeah, it's been a long time since the last release, and despite |
137 what others may tell you, we were just really lazy. This is pretty | |
138 much just 0.75 again, but, like, someone changed the "Info" icon and | |
139 I think, like, the Chinese translation may have been updated. We did | |
140 nothing interesting on it at all. Others may tell you "we haven't just | |
141 been lazy," or "you guys will find that we've managed to do some neat | |
142 stuf in this one." They lie. All of them. | |
9102 | 143 |
8540 | 144 Luke: Okay, normally I wait for Sean to go first, but he said to commit. |
145 Its been a few months since the last release, but we haven't just been | |
146 lazy. A very long ChangeLog for you all. Most notably of course is the | |
147 addition of WYSIWYG input for chats and conversations. Many thanks to | |
148 DAYS of long work by Sean, Gary Kramlich, Kevin Stange, Tim Ringenbach, | |
9395 | 149 and Stu Tomlinson for their efforts writting, fixing, and testing |
150 this. Without the dedicated support of our crazy patch writters, this | |
151 release would have taken yet longer. Sean also has yahoo working again, | |
152 with some assistance from our friends over at Trillian, you may all | |
153 officially rejoice. We also have a large number of bug fixes, closing | |
154 more than 200 bug reports this month alone. | |

8542 | 163 Mark: Our crazy patch writers rock. Gary Kramlich, Tim Ringenbach, |

168 grand!! | |
8542 | 169 |
8547 | 170 Tim: Luke said write a NEWS, so I thought I would. There's a room |
171 list dialog now. And Nathan and I doubled the number of protocols that | |
172 can transfer files. After that I got lazy/busy and let Gary, Kevin, | |
173 and Stu fix all the bugs. | |
174 | |
8551 | 175 Nathan: Rob happens to share a birthday with my sister. So far she's |
176 been very vague about what she wants. She's not an easy person to shop | |
177 for. As for things you probably care more about, this release has so | |
178 much in it that I've forgotten about most of it. The stupidest of the | |
179 bugs from 0.75 are fixed. Jabber has a first pass at file transfer | |
180 support (no proxy support yet). SOCKS 5 proxy support may have gotten | |
181 a little better as a side-effect. Twinkies and penguin points to all | |
182 of the crazy patch writers, who did more than their fair share this | |
183 release. | |
184 | |
8553 | 185 Ethan: My birthday was yesterday, and not on the same day as Rob |
186 and Nathan's sister. And I don't mean that Rob and Nathan have the | |
187 same sister. For this release, I thought about making IRC better, I | |
188 thought about making Tcl better, and I committed patches from several | |
189 others who actually did these things. And probably some other | |
190 things, too. Let's hear it for crazy patch writers, and for the open | |
191 source philosophy that lets them get so CRAZY. | |
192 | |
8047 | 193 0.75 (01/09/2004): |
194 Rob: Woah, what's this? Me? Making a NEWS post!? Say it ain't so! | |
195 That's right, kiddos, I'm finally coming out of my reclusiveness. | |
196 I had a pretty shitty few months, and also just needed a break from | |
197 things. But, I'm back, and that's good. Right? Yes. And now, | |
198 a little word from Eric Warmenhoven.. :P | |
199 | |
8049 | 200 Eric: Ah, Rob and Eric. Just like the good ol' days. Now, if |
201 you'll excuse me, I have to go make some commits with Led Zeppelin | |
202 lyrics as my commit logs. heh. What do you mean, I look a lot | |
203 like Sean Egan? I'm... oh fine, you got me. It's really just Sean | |
204 in an Eric Warmenhoven costume. | |
205 | |
206 So, Yahoo! works again, and that's good. And 0.76 is going to have | |
207 something _very_ neat. | |
208 | |
8050 | 209 Nathan: You're running out of excuses to not use Jabber. Our chat |
210 support is now bar-some, quickly approaching bar-none! Everything | |
211 else in Jabber got neat improvements too. I'll leave it up to you | |
212 to figure out what they were. | |

225 Unfortunately, he took out the chat support in doing so. So use | |
226 conferences for now if you use yahoo. Users begging for file | |
227 transfer support should thank Tim 'marv' Ringenbach for Yahoo ft, | |

270 Sean: Christian and Nathan were wrong. | |
271 | |
272 Ethan: I don't know how solid or good this release will be, but | |
273 hopefully it's better than 0.73! Not that 0.73 didn't rock or | |
274 anything, but for those users bit by its peculiar little bugs | |
275 it wasn't as nice as this will be. | |
276 | |
277 Nathan: Jabber got some good tweaks, and logging doesn't eat | |
278 memory until the cows come home. Which is good, because they | |
279 said they'll be out until late. | |
280 | |
281 Luke: Always nice when directories get created correctly ;-) | |
282 | |
7593 | 283 0.73 (11/21/2003): |
284 Nathan: This should be a really solid release. I fixed most if not | |
285 all of the idiotic Jabber bugs from 0.72, and re-enabled the SASL | |
286 login stuff, now that it is finalized in the XMPP drafts. Oh, and | |
287 we now have a release notification plugin, so you can find out when | |
288 the latest and greatest version of Gaim is out without breaking that | |
289 reload button in your browser. There's other fun new stuff, but I | |
290 forget what it is. | |

324 enough, I'm sure I'll remember what it was... Oh yeah, all of | |
325 you paranoid people can hide your local username by changing | |
326 your IRC account settings. I also want to note that we are | |
327 aware that building Gaim is Harder than it Should Be on | |
328 Solaris, and I am seeking solutions to some of the issues | |
329 there. Everyone remember to give some love to the developers | |
330 who actually did something of note this release (i.e. not me)! | |
331 | |
7397 | 332 Nathan: Jabber got a ton better this release, as I fixed most of the |

346 too many problems. There are a lot of little nice feature additions, |

348 in a couple of releases, assuming we can get the remaining two or three | |
349 parts core/UI-split. Oh, and plugin authors are going to hate me again, | |
350 as a lot of code (specifically, the conversations code and utility | |
351 functions) changed names. This is a Good Thing (TM), as always, but may | |
352 require modifications to some plugins. Not all, fortunately, but some | |
353 :) Many SSL problems were fixed, though we still have some to go. If | |
354 you don't have SSL, you now need it for MSN. MSN won't even load without | |

369 I re-wrote the Jabber support from scratch, so now there's at least one | |
370 person who knows what's going on with it. I got lost in the old code, | |
371 even in the parts I wrote. It now supports the SASL login stuff from | |
372 the XMPP protocol specs, and will automagically upgrade the conncetion | |
373 to SSL if it's supported. If anything doesn't work like it did before, | |
374 it's probably better, and you should be thankful for it. | |
375 | |
7225 | 376 Ethan: I'm sure I'll be showered with all kinds of wonderful things, |
377 but I doubt it's because I did anything. The reason being that I | |
378 really don't think I did anything. I meant to do some gaim_ | |
379 prepension and documentation for IRC and Tcl, and handle IRC errors | |
380 more responsibly, but I've been meaning to do that for months. | |
7226 | 381 Except the Tcl part, the Tcl plugin hasn't even existed for months. |
7225 | 382 I figure if I write enough NEWS no one will notice I didn't do |
383 anything during the release cycle. Oh, I did close some bugs. I | |
384 didn't fix them, mind you, I just closed them. With abandon. | |

519 working offline on a MacOSX UI. No, you're not allowed to ask | |

6134 | 523 Sean: Although I tend to go right here in the two slot in NEWS, |
524 we don't always commit in this order. This is the third time I've | |
525 rewritten this because the jerks below me keep commiting while I'm | |
526 writing causing mass conflictination. Grrr. Stupid jerks. Anyway, | |
527 this is Gaim 0.65. Like other Gaim releases, this allows you to | |
528 converse with people far away over the "Internet." That's about it. | |
529 It's really not that interesting. In fact, I wouldn't even bother | |
530 reading the other people's NEWS. It's all boring. There's some | |
531 crap about forest fires and fangs and claws. It's really boring. | |
532 Great, now Luke just committed NEWS causing more conflictination. | |
533 I wouldn't bother reading his either. Oh, and I don't want to thank | |
534 Megan (Cae) or Kevin (SimGuy). They're stupid jerks too. Grrr... | |
535 | |
6129 | 536 Mark: I actually did stuff for this release. Go me. I probably |
537 shouldn't speak for all of us, but I'm going to anyway: We feel that | |
538 this release is one of Gaim's best. It should be relatively bug | |
6135 | 539 free, and the code is cleaner than ever, thanks to lots of work by |
6129 | 540 Christian and Nathan. We had some help from a few civilians |
541 finding and fixing bugs. Thanks to Megan (Cae), Ka-Hing Cheung | |
6130 | 542 (javabsp), and Kevin Stange (SimGuy) for their work. Man, I was just |
6129 | 543 looking at Sean's NEWS entry for 0.64--that's talent. Also, stay |
544 in school. Just say no. Only you can prevent forest fires. | |

6133 | 568 Luke: Wow! Finally releasing 0.65! Christian, Nathan, and Mark have |
569 worked really hard for this release, all the credit goes to them. | |
570 The new preferences are awesome, and there are more bugs fixed for | |
571 this release than in the last 3 or 4 releases. Your MSN should work | |
572 reliably again, your preferences saved, your accounts resort, the | |
573 list goes on and on. A couple preferences, most notably your buddy | |
574 list sorting preference won't be imported, but almost all of them | |
575 will be and its probly a good idea for you to take a second look | |
576 through preferences again anyway, alot of you are starting to | |
577 forget that things are optional again. :-) | |

6137 | 579 Nathan: I think I did something for this release a while ago. I've |
580 got a mailbox full of commit emails, and some have my name on them, | |
581 so I must have done something, right? Probably some minor jabber stuff, | |
582 and lots of crazy bugfixes. It was a team effort, I'd like to thank the | |

598 all of your hard work, guys :). | |

5555 | 600 Sean: Unlike every other time we say, "the next release will be loaded |
601 with cool new features, this time, we really mean it. In fact, they're | |
602 already in CVS (don't use CVS). The only obvious new feature for 0.64 | |
603 is buddy list sorting. This has been much requested and can be set in | |
604 the buddy list preferences. You can sort by name, by status, and even | |
605 by log file size--putting people you talk to most at the top. Plugins | |
606 can even easily add their own sorting methods. It's all very cool. I | |
5559 | 607 want to thank Luke and Ka-Hing for their initial work on it. And yes, |
5555 | 608 I did make my entire NEWS entry justified on purpose. |

5409 | 624 Rob: Wow, so, what can I say? I've been rather AWOL for the past few |
625 releases. However, that's okay. Work has been pretty friggin hec- | |
626 tic, so, that's my excuse. Work is finally going to be slowing down | |
627 some. I plan to be doing more Gaim work. That makes me happy. That | |
628 makes you happy. That makes us all happy. Now, I just need to | |
629 finish rebuilding my car's engine. Engine rebuilds put the FU in | |
630 fun! | |
5403 | 631 |
632 Sean: Yay! School is finally over. I have to give tons of cherry- | |
633 flavored props to everyone whose been helping out while I stayed away | |
634 from Gaim to keep myself from failing again, especially Christian and | |
635 Nathan. | |
636 | |
5404 | 637 Luke: Okay, this is NOT a bug fix release, at least for those of you |
638 who use MSN. Christian put in a TON of effort rewritting the MSN prpl, | |
639 mega props to him on this release. In other news, we have alot of bugs | |
640 fixed, and a goodly number of the translations are more up to date | |
641 than they were in earlier releases. There are some other significant | |
642 changes, but they are mostly backend stuff, yay for core/ui splits ;-) | |

5410 | 664 Nathan: It seems like 0.62 was forever and a day ago. I had to look |
665 at the ChangeLog to remember what I did. Apparently I made it so you | |
666 can put chats in your buddy list. And then I tweaked a bunch of stuff | |
667 and fixed a bunch of crashes. Then exams came, and then I went home | |
668 for a week and left my laptop's power cable here at school, so I didn't | |
669 get anything done. Jabber will get all sorts of fun new stuff for | |
670 the next release. Really. ;-) | |

5193 | 673 Sean: This is just another standard bi-weekly Gaim release. Nothing |
674 really interesting, but it has some good bugfixes. Personally, I've | |
675 been a bit removed from Gaim development lately what with school getting | |
676 tough and stuff, but the rest of the guys have really been doing great | |
677 work without me. Thanks, guys. | |

9395 | 686 Luke: I didn't do much here besides the odd translation patch and a |
687 couple bug fix patches. This is primarily a bug fix release, and much | |
688 needed at that. Didn't get a chance to write sorting code, work has been | |
689 busy. Hopeefully it will happen for 0.63. | |
5196 | 690 |

692 my Pop-tarts now. | |
693 | |
9395 | 694 Nathan: oh dot sixty two. There are a lot of bugs fixed in this |
695 release, and one major new feature. Our Jabber plugin now supports | |
696 XHTML-IM. In plain english, this means that you can now format your | |
697 jabber messages, and other people will see the formatting. GtkIMHTML | |
698 still needs some work to get it to parse valid XHTML-IM better, but that | |
699 will come in time. That time would come sooner if my CS prof accepted | |
700 "I was hacking on Gaim" as a valid excuse for an extension ;-) | |

5059 | 703 Rob: Nathan commited his news first. However, I'm cooler so I'm putting |
704 my entry above his. Yeah, so, there were some DnD issues with 0.60. I | |
705 blame it on the rain. It was falling, falling. I blame it on the | |
706 faucet. It drips all night. | |
707 | |
9395 | 708 Sean: I committed my news after Rob. I'm cooler than Nathan (by far) |
709 but not as cool as Rob. So I go here. Actually, I didn't do anything | |
710 since 0.60 other than commit some other peoples patches. The one from | |
711 Dave Camp is cool. How 'bout this snow? Isn't that crazy? Oh, and | |
712 thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday. | |

5058 | 714 Nathan: You want frequent releases? You got 'em ;-) Chip wrote some |
715 cool new pounce stuff, and things shouldn't get weird when you drag | |
716 groups and buddies around. It's bad enough having 1 of some of my | |
717 buddies on my list, I definitely don't need duplicates. Being that I | |

9395 | 726 Luke: Okay, i'm probly the least cool, so I'll go last. I committed a |
727 few patches from other people here, nothing earth shattering though. The | |
728 biggest thing in this release is the group re-ordering bug fix, having | |
729 that fixed will make for fewwer questions. Get used to using releases | |
730 people, we want to use cvs for actual development :-). | |

738 Rob: Wow. So, it has been a really long time since we started the | |
739 gtk2 fork. It's finally ready for public consumption. Sean is about | |
740 to go out and buy a case of beer. My roommate is downstairs right | |
741 now pouring me a shot of his choice. Everyone, raise your beers if | |
742 you've got them. It's been a cool almost 10-months of development. | |
743 I hope you all enjoy. Drink'em if you got'em! | |
744 | |
5024 | 745 Sean: I'm writing this 3 minutes before my 21st birthday. Nobody can |
746 believe we're finally ready to relase 0.60. Many thanks to everyone | |
747 who helped out; I'm convinced that Gaim 0.60 is the best IM client to | |
748 date (only to be bested by 0.61). There's WAY too much stuff to mention. | |
749 Even the ChangeLog is somewhat incomplete. Yay, I'm 21 now! Everyone | |
750 enjoy! :) | |
751 | |
5025 | 752 Nathan: Happy birthday Sean! Rob decided to let me start cleaning up |
753 after everyone, so here I am. "sexy" is the only word that can be used | |
754 to describe 0.60. Prepare to be shocked and amazed. /me raises his | |
755 (shot) glass ;-) | |
756 | |
9395 | 757 Christian: Geeeeeze this took a long time. Worth it though! Personally, |
758 I thought we'd all just give up on releases altogether and tell | |
759 everybody just to grab CVS. I'm pretty happy with this release. I was | |
760 able to contribute quite a bit to it. Makes me feel proud to be a gaim | |
761 developer! I'm really looking forward to the future releases. I have | |
762 some neat stuff planned. Yay, I'm still 19! Mmmm, Sierra Mist. Make me a | |

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

789 didn't go out on time. Oh well. I would like to welcome | |
790 Jim Seymour aboard the development team. He's going to be taking | |
791 over the work on our Jabber code as well as doing various other | |

795 important security fix for MSN and a few nice new features. | |
796 Not *much* cooler than 0.57--but we're making progress ;) | |

803 what happens when the bottom person goes first.) New translation, | |
804 a few fixes, secure msn hotmail logins, blah blah blah. As Sean | |
805 said, the next release will be cooler. If only you could read | |
806 our minds ;-). | |
807 | |
3179 | 808 Sean: Nothing too special here, but a critical Yahoo fix that |
809 ensures Yahoo! will work when they discontinue the old protocol | |
810 all the other 3rd party clients are using. Next release will be | |
811 cooler, I promise. | |
3173 | 812 |
3144 | 813 0.56 (04/11/2002): |
814 Rob: Well, what do you know. I have another headache. I always have | |
815 these damned headaches. I got pissed off with the way GtkTree looks. | |
816 I wanted to move to using GtkCTree. I think they're pretty. | |
817 Unfortunately, GtkCTree sucks. After a little digging through | |
818 the code, I managed to molest GtkTree into looking like | |
819 GtkCTree. Thanks to everyone that helped track down that one | |
820 annoying style problem. | |
821 | |
822 Sean: Hello. This is another minor release while Rob and I finish | |
823 up on some bigger projects. We're reworking a lot of the UI to make | |
824 it easier to use, nicer looking, and more compatible with gtk2. | |
825 I've also been trying to bring the Yahoo plugin up to date, so it | |
826 will work for Indian users and avoid a potential problem in the near | |
827 future. | |

3113 | 829 0.55 (03/29/2002): |
830 Rob: 0.55 is here. I've been away for a few days on business. Sean | |
831 has been on Spring Break. Therefore, this release is mostly a patch | |
832 release. It does fix some bugs and makes a few thing slightly cooler, | |
833 so it's better in that aspect, I suppose. Enjoy. | |
834 | |
3110 | 835 Sean: This is mostly a bugfix release. I'm on Spring Break, not |
836 doing any coding at all. But lots of people sent in great patches | |
837 anyway. Thanks guys! | |

840 Rob: Well, here we are. 0.54. We got a lot of fun things in this | |
841 release. Better working SSI, Image sending, protocol specific | |
842 smiley faces, and a whole lot of triscuits. *gobble* | |
843 | |
3054 | 844 Sean: We fixed a lot of bugs in this one, and probably introduced |
845 a bunch too. ;) We were both really busy, and did all the coding | |
846 late at night when we were tired, so if something isn't working, | |
847 it's probably just tired code. Enjoy the triscuits! | |

855 It can do Screen Name formatting, it can save and store your buddy | |
856 list on the server, it can do typing notifications in Direct | |
857 Connections, and yes, it can receive IM Images! Sending images will | |
858 be added in the next release. MSN and Yahoo! can do typing | |
859 notification too. Hooray! | |

2961 | 862 0.52 (02/17/2002): |
2965 | 863 Rob: Well, after a long delay we're finally ready for another release. |
864 I finally got settled into my new apartment, the new job is going | |
865 well, and I finally have internet connectivity again. You can expect | |
866 us to be back on our usually bi-monthly schedule. Enjoy these fixen, | |
867 as they resolve a few connectivity issues. :-) | |
868 | |
869 Sean: It looks like things are back on track now. Eric left which is | |
870 sad. He's done so much for Gaim, and I know we're all thankful. | |
871 Thanks Eric! I'll be stepping in and do more development, but I can | |
872 never replace Eric. This release fixes a long-standing problem in | |
873 MSN. If you've gotten errors when trying to connect to MSN, you want | |
874 this release. If you've suddenly found yourself unable to connect to | |
875 Yahoo!, you want this release too. The "neat goodies" will be in the | |
876 next release ;) | |

883 after over a month, Sorry for the delay, all. Things got really | |
884 hectic around the gaim house hold. This release isn't as complete | |
885 as I had hoped, but I promised to get something out. There's some | |
886 neat goodies in mind for the next release, right Sean? :-) | |

1115 a little 100% CPU eating bug but that's taken care of now. Next | |
1116 on my list of repairs is the napster plugin. It works -- sorta -- | |
1117 sometimes. Heh. As all of you probably know already, our Oscar | |
1118 support was broken yesterday. There's a little battle going on | |
1119 between AOL and Jabber and we caught a bullet during the crossfire. | |

1289 | 1233 0.11.0-pre1 (12/03/2000): |
1199 | 1234 Rob: Hey guys! Guess what!? Yup, you're correct! It's the pre1 |
1235 release of 0.11.0. We have all sorts of goodies in this release! | |
1236 Check out the ChangeLog file. As always if you find any bugs, | |
1237 please report them on www.sourceforge.net/projects/gaim/ | |
1195 | 1238 |
1239 You may find several small bugs as this is still a prerelease. | |
1192 | 1240 |
1199 | 1241 You may want to note that my IRC plugin does not have full |
1242 functionality as of yet. All of the important / commands will be | |
1243 added before the final release. Also, if someone could send me | |
1244 some good buddylist pixmaps for the irc plugin then I'd much | |
1245 appreciate it. Thanks to everyone who made this new release possible! | |
1194 | 1246 |
1195 | 1247 If you have any ideas, comments, or suggestions, please let us know |
1199 | 1248 either by e-mail or via the source forge message board at the URL |
1249 above. :) | |

1195 | 1252 Eric: So what was Yay! For Gaim!? Yay was the codename for the |
1253 Yahoo plugin. The whole point of all of these changes was I wanted to | |
1254 make a proof-of-concept plugin that would let Gaim sign into Yahoo. It | |
1255 turned out to be pretty much impossible with the old code. So, | |
1256 Rob and I hacked gaim so we could do just that. There's now a whole new | |
1257 class of plugins, Protocol Plugins, that let users dynamically add new | |
1258 protocols to Gaim. Just load the plugin, and create a new account that | |
1259 uses that protocol, and you're set! Yay! (Oscar and TOC are both still | |
1260 static. Gaim is, after all, primarily an AIM client.) | |

1428 | |
170 | 1429 0.9.15: |
219 | 1430 Hey boy's and girls. There's not much to say here this time. |
1431 We're loving Southern California, the new job's going great. We just | |
1432 got our company website up and the product development is going pretty | |
1433 smooth. Life's pretty sweet now. | |
1434 | |
1435 We've hacked up all kinds of goodies for you in 0.9.15. There's | |
1436 some file transfer (receive) support for those of you who have been | |
1437 wanting it for a while. There's some other misc. goodies tossed in as | |
1438 well. Enjoy!! Oh yeah, we need a new website. Come up with a sweet | |
1439 design and get in touch with me. The current site is at: | |
1440 http://www.marko.net/gaim | |
1441 | |
1442 Thanks much! | |
1443 | |
170 | 1444 |
76 | 1445 0.9.14: |
104 | 1446 Well, there's a few random hacks and fixes in here, along with |
1447 a little suprise. You guessed it, kiddos, support for plugins! Happy | |
1448 hacking! | |
76 | 1449 |
56 | 1450 0.9.13: |
69 | 1451 Not much to say for this release. Bug fixes, That's all. Look |
1452 for the goodies I promised in 0.9.13 to appear in 0.9.14 which should be | |
1453 released very soon now. | |
56 | 1454 |
71 | 1455 By the way, our CVS is now hosted over at source forge. Go check |
1456 it out at http://www.sourceforge.net. Please check there before submitting | |
1457 any bug reports (You can read our CVS comments to see if we have fixed any | |
1458 problems). | |
1459 | |
7 | 1460 0.9.12: |
25 | 1461 Well guys, looks like we got some nifty things in this version. |
1462 TrueType Fonts are supported for those XFSTT buffs out there (or whatever | |
1463 else you use). A crap load of those plaguing memory leaks have FINALLY been | |
1464 fixed. My brother, Jeramey, and a new friend Peter Teichan helped stomp | |
1465 those babies out. A rad guy by the name of Eric Warmenhoven has been | |
1466 really sweet lately and has all but rewritten the Gnome Applet support :). | |
1467 He submitted patch after patch. I finally got annoyed with him (just kidding bud) | |
1468 and gave him CVS access. Look for Gnome Applet support in Gaim to start improving. | |
1469 That's about all for now. I wanted to get this release out there. File Receive | |
1470 support will be in 0.9.13 which is due out soon. | |
7 | 1471 |
0 | 1472 0.9.11: |
1473 Jeramey got a new Comfy Chair! Its very very comfy! Whee! | |
1474 Jim also had a little hyper-drunken moment and started hacking away at | |

1475 a new configuration format for Gaim. Looks like we're running .gaimrc |
0 | 1476 version 1 now. Gotta love it. I got bored and hacked in a couple font |
1477 properties that will, in time, contain more features. That's about it | |
1478 for this version -- cept for that memory leak we fixed. Shush! We're | |
1479 not plumbers! -- rob | |
1480 | |
1481 ** Extra special update ** | |
1482 | |
1483 Well guys, it looks like we all stopped working on gaim, moved to California, | |
1484 and took up a new job. Don't worry though, those beach bums out here havent | |
1485 worn off on us yet. I've decided to pick up the Gaim torch myself and continue | |
1486 development ont he prohect. Hopefully we wont have any more five month braks in | |
1487 the project. Sorry about that, guys :) | |
1488 | |
1489 0.9.10: | |
1490 Umm. Dont ask. Silly memory leak. For those of you who | |
1491 wondered, you were losing about 256 bytes every 25 seconds for each | |
1492 person you have on your contact list. Make fun of us. Better yet .. | |
1493 Send us beer. We'll do better :) | |
1494 | |
1495 0.9.9: | |
1496 Welp, All of you boys and girls who run Mandrake and have some | |

1497 problems with Gaim working properly, please check out the FAQ file. It |
0 | 1498 contains a nice fix submitted by one of our users. I hope this works for |
1499 you guys! | |
1500 Jim appears to have intoxicated himself. This is, as always, a | |
1501 Good Thing (tm). His late-night adventure with the liquid-bread food group | |
1502 lead to the birth of a nice little feature called `The Lag-O-Meter'. Dont | |
1503 ask, just try it out :). It is pretty pointless if you have a super-fast | |
1504 connection but if you are a modem user, like many of us are, then try it out. | |
1505 There's also some idle preferences and some other little random | |
1506 bug fixes. Check'em out yo :) | |
1507 | |
1508 0.9.8: | |
1509 Get Along Lil' Doggies. Heh. Looks like we have yet another new | |
1510 version of gaim for you guys to play with. Be gentle now, it has a few | |
1511 new fetures. The HTML widget is now more robust and we have *da da da* | |
1512 HTTP proxy support. | |
1513 Oh By The Way, Do not pay too much attention to what we are doing | |
1514 with this release. We are all a little bit happy tonight. You must love | |
1515 life. This is a special release of gaim. We will be releasing some wonderful | |
1516 photographs soon .. or perhaps if we get the bloody webcam working then we | |
1517 will take a couple of quick snapshots. | |

1518 Looks like the Gaim developers convention (cool name huh) that we |
0 | 1519 had this weekend in Auburn, AL went wonderfully :). yum yum yum. Hahahah. Oh |
1520 by the way. Beware of insecure rednecks in the deli. Bad things. | |
1521 In (non)related news, Jeramey could not successfully slaughter the | |
1522 one pound hamburger that he ordered. (I think he could have done it but he | |
1523 wasn't feeling very well at the time). | |
1524 Oh Yes, New Logo Too :) You likes? Thanks, Naru! | |
1525 Just a little side-note: it looks like we didnt make the release that | |
1526 we had expected during the Gaim Convention. Maybe we partied too much? I am | |
1527 not sure. I remember watching the sun rise before I went to bed, though. | |
1528 Oh well. Here's your release! Enjoy! | |
1529 By The Way, we have uploaded our party pictures to a website. | |
1530 http://www.dorky.net/gaim/party/ They are nothing spectacular but I hope you | |
1531 enjoy them! :). | |
1532 | |
1533 0.9.7: | |
1534 Well, boys and girls, it's that time again! Yup, time for the good | |
1535 release fairy to come bless us with her infinite wisdom and divine presence. | |
1536 Umm, yeah, something like that. Anyways, this release has several little | |
1537 "bad" network fixes (as Jim likes to say) and a couple touch-ups to a few | |
1538 other features. It also features preliminary oscar support. Thanks to Jim | |
1539 and Adam ("the libfaim guy") hehe :) We have also corrected a problem with | |
1540 gaim not wainting to correctly save your password if you have an underscore | |
1541 in it. Thanks to w1za7d for pointing out the underscore problem. ' and \ | |
1542 have also been fixed in passwords. :o) | |
1543 | |
1544 0.9.6: | |
1545 Sorry about the little segfaulting bugs in the past release. Rob | |
1546 is stupid. :). Anyways, they have been patched up and a couple new features | |
1547 have been added. I hope you guys enjoy. | |
1548 | |
1549 0.9.5: | |
1550 Well we added a myriad of new features to this release. (A lot of | |
1551 small buggie fixes too.) If you need a detailed list just check out the | |
1552 ChangeLog. We now have a new webpage design and have added a FAQ to the | |
1553 distribution. Before coming to us with any problems please take a quick | |
1554 look through the FAQ to make sure we havent already covered your question. | |
1555 Also, thanks to our beloved Web Monkey, FlynOrange, we have all | |
1556 learned the true power of foam weapons, slinkies, and whoopie cushions. Hmm | |
1557 gotta love those pranks, eh? | |
1558 | |
1559 0.8.0: | |
1560 Well, just starting the NEWS file. I'll try to remember what's new | |
1561 from the last version. Hmmm. BIG code reorg. Import/export, buddy pounce | |
1562 among the major new features. Autoconf script too, which is a big win. | |
1563 Apologies to those who submitted patches which haven't made it in.. I | |
1564 promise, the next version! This code reorg took up a lot of my time, and I | |
1565 want to get it out there. | |
