HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADAM ISER!!!!!! rawr
There will be no binary for at least a day or two, and CVS is currently broken. The changes Adam has been working on for a couple weeks are almost fully in place and are very exciting. 🙂
On a side note, away messages and profiles will filter properly through such things as the iTunes integration plugin when our regularly scheduled programming returns.
I’ve been working on a large update to how the contact list is handled internally within Adium for a while now… Hopefully the changes will go up on friday 🙂
These internal changes should lead the way towards a new contact list editor, performance improvements, and fixes to several issues that have been around for a while now. I’ll have more details when the changes go up.
Yiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaa!!!
Happy new year to all!!!
I wish a superb new year to all Adium users, developers, contributors and specially the fearless leader Adam Iser and his fearless duck breeder Laura Natcher!!!
I love you all!
P.D.: that I wrote this while being completely drunk after the new year’s party is not conflicting with my true feelings expressed above… whatever Adium r0x0r!!!
A quick note. Creating new groups for a MSN account in the current contact list editor is not working properly, nor moving a MSN contact to a previously created AIM group. Great things are coming that will fix all these issues (they may appear with other protocols as well), just have patience!
Having done MSN, Yahoo, and Jabber, those two (which had already compiled in an UNIX-y way when I was working with gaim previously) were just staring me down, with beautiful green eyes… and I just couldn’t say no.
The MSN HTML problem is fixed now – good catch, eevyl. [edit]We’re just stripping font information for the present; Colin’s going to make it right for real.[/edit] Yahoo display issues are better, too. Jabber doesn’t work because it apparently violates as a matter of course something which was indicative of a problem in AIM… probably won’t be too hard to fix.
MSN and Yahoo both require confirmation when someone adds you to their contact list… you’ll see a “adiumGaimRequestAction” in your console log, but Adium doesn’t know how to handle it yet. Sign in with an official client and you can respond to the request.
I’m going to be mostly gone for a couple days… New Year’s celebrations, post-New Year’s celebrations, and recovery. Watch out for that nasty Y2K4 bug which is going to shake the OS X community…
