Gaim Releases Version 1.0.0

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the unpossible dept.

bfree writes "Congratulations to all in the gaim team as they release for download version 1.0.0 (changelog). For those who don't know what gaim is, you could read the full answer on their site but for the lazy: 'Gaim is a multi-protocol instant messaging (IM) client for Linux, BSD, MacOS X, and Windows. It is compatible with AIM (Oscar and TOC protocols), ICQ, MSN Messenger, Yahoo!, IRC, Jabber, Gadu-Gadu, and Zephyr networks.' Gaim is also the 2nd most active project on Sourceforge and the 4th most popular on Freshmeat and seemingly all round #1 Free IM client!"

    This is great! They reached version ! release.
    Not many OSS projects van claim a version 1 release.

    But a version 1 implies no more bugs, wil there be no bugs in GAIM??

    Just my thoughts,

    You have to remember that any piece of free software that tries to make money via ads is anathema to Free software and should be shunned as much as possible, regardless of any and all potential uses said software has.
