Psi 0.10 released
As formally announced on our forums (http://forum.psi-im.org/thread/3481), Psi 0.10 has been released after a long development cycle. Significant changes include tabbed chat windows, transparent chat & roster windows, and several other nifty GUI features like Growl support in OSX and an auto-resizing input box.
Next up to the plate is a port to QT4 for 0.11, which is already well on the way. Aside from the obvious benefits to QT/KDE developers, a big bonus is we'll finally be able to compile Psi "for free" on Windows as Trolltech open-sourced the toolkit for that platform in the latter part of last year.
Then for 0.12 and forward we'll be back to adding new features like:
- "Jingle" Google Talk-compatible VOIP
- MUC (Multi-user Chat) support
- Full XMPP compliance
- Ad-Hoc Commands (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0050.html)
This year should see much improvement for us.

Psi-0.10-test1, New Test Release
Ok guys, it's here
The usual rules apply, this is still prerelease, if you break it you get to keep both parts etc.
Please go forth and test, and file bug reports as necessary.
Also while we were waiting to make a simultaneous release of the new website, wiki and iconset together, today's launch of Google Talk has pushed our hand, and we're releasing the wiki with Test1.
Also, we're thinking of running a CafePress shop for Psi merchandise to celebrate the launch of the new, improved and very pretty 0.10 when the time comes. So if people have thoughts on that, please can they (starting a new thread so this doesn't become cluttered) comment on that.
The wiki is available here: http://psi-im.org/wiki
The new user guide is available here: http://psi-im.org/wiki/User_Guide
IceRAM's google talk howto is available here: http://psi-im.org/wiki/Google_Talk_HowTo

Many thanks to IceRAM, who's spent today tirelessly changing every last thing about the Google howto, per my complaints and who's also been setting up the wiki.
