[Gossip-dev] ANNOUNCE: Gossip 0.10.1

Gossip 0.10.1 is now available for download from:
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gossip/0.10/


What is Gossip
==============

Gossip is an instant messaging client for GNOME with an easy-to-use 
interface, providing users of the GNOME Desktop with a friendly way to 
keep in touch with their friends.


What's new in Gossip 0.10.1
===========================

- Changed the accounts dialog and removed the enable/disable account
checkbutton in the accounts list, it was pointless (Martyn).
- Changed the account button tooltip to only show the account id and any
error that might of occurred (Martyn).
- Added typing notification on the roster (Martyn, Richard).
- Added a chat theme selection in the preferences to choose between
Classic and Blue (which is a block message format), try it! (Richard).
- Don't ellipsize text in the menu created for status presets, this
usually is not shown in full when using the menu on the tray icon
(Martyn). 
- Added libnotify support for contacts coming online and sending first
time messages (note: this only works with libnotify 0.2.1 at the moment,
not with the 0.3.x API, if you have 0.3.x you might have to disable it
with configure --disable-libnotify) (Martyn).
- Use a GtkWindow instead of a GnomeApp for the main window. The widget
spacing for toolbars and menus is much better now (Martyn).
