Pidgin 2.0.0, which integrates MSN and QQ

After more than a year of Beta, the official version of pidgin 2.0.0 was finally released a few days ago. When the new version was released, the official homepage was re-created. The exterior of GAIM 2.0.0 beta6 is also changed compared with Gaim 2.0.0 beta6 before the name is renamed. The redesigned icons are more refined than before. The tango style starts to support 16 ~ In 48 different sizes, the online status is used to replace the previously displayed protocol icons before the names on the friends list panel, which makes it more intuitive.

Pidgin 2.0.0 transfers the configuration folder from. Gaim to. Purple, and uses ln to connect logs and smileys for sharing. The jabber protocol in GAIM also changed its name to XMPP. No difference was found. I only found this sentence in the description of Jabber: "Internet Engineering team (IETF) the core XML Stream protocol of Jabber has been officially named as XMPP as recognized instant messaging and presence technology ". In this version, openq is said to be using the latest SVN version. My QQ has been unable to log on due to a verification code problem and is now able to access it, the expressions in pidgin have also been re-designed and support the 90 default expressions of QQ. If you do not like them, replace the Gaim 2.0.0 beta6 expressions that come with ubuntu.

If you do not want to compile it on Ubuntu, you can download the compiled pidgin 2.0.0 for feisty Fawn. You need to uninstall GAIM and Gaim-data before installation ~ /. Gaim back up the data first. Although pidgin has changed compared with the previous GAIM, there was no exception during the upgrade process. It seems that the delay in pidgin 2.0.0 release is not white in the past few days, voice and video are still the functions expected in the future.
