Take care - Robert Lazzurs Version 0.2.1beta6 Wow, ok, this has been a vbusy week or two. We were kicked from the MSN servers, which was nice, but thanks to new team member Meredydd we are back :) This is the main reason for this release, there are still bugs, I know, but with any luck all will be well soon, I am hoping beta7 will be an all together more stable release. Take care - Robert Lazzurs Version 0.2.1beta5 Heh, ok, beta4 was kinda messy, but that seems to be fixed now and here is the all new and improved beta5 :) Also IRC support is getting better, so go on, give it a try, you know you want too. Take care - Robert Lazzurs Version 0.2.1beta4 Ok, we are getting on a bit now and I think that all is going well. I think a realastic date for the stable release is going to be the end of this month (June) I am always happy to get your patches so feel free to keep sending them in to lazzurs@lazzurs.co.uk Big shouts this time go out to Mitch, Ben, Torrey, FLUG (Falkirk Linux Users Group), Barry and Erik B As you may or may not notice IRC support has been added, now this is in the testing stage, but it will be very nice when it is finished, we have Erik B to thank for this one and I hope to be seeing more good work from him. Also it looks like libicq will not be dumped, the maintainers have gotten in touch and are working on it now, so hopefuly the next release will have work from them in also. All those people who have offered to be packagers for the project, this is your time to shine, please start work as soon as poss please, I am hoping to have all the packaging problems sorted out in this release. I hope you enjoy the changes we have made as always I am looking for bug reports please send them to the mailing list and we will help as much as poss. Take care all - Robert Lazzurs, Everybuddy Maintainer Version 0.2.1-beta Ok, this is the first release by the new maintainer, Robert Lazzurs. The first big peice of news is that EB is changing to a Debian style release system, we will have the usual code for developers in CVS, but now we will have beta releases which I would like users and developers alike to try out and bug test for us.......and this hopfuly should lead to a better 'stable' release. Big shouts go out to the creator Torrey Searle, he has left me with a great program and I hope I can manage to do as good a job in the future as he has done in the past......also may I remind everyone that Torrey has not left, he is just very busy. Last but by no means least I would like to thank the wonderful developers on the EB project, Torrey Searle, Ben Rigas, Mitch Peabody, Sourav K. Mandal and Bertran Mathieu :) Take care all - Robert Lazzurs Version 0.2.0 January 20 Wow, things are changing.
