J.I.M v0.1-e - released.
(Visit: http://jxtaim.sourceforge.net)
J.I.M the Jxta Instant Messenger utilizes jxta (http://www.jxta.org)
technologies to implement a modern Instant Messaging Client.
Features currently implemented:
+ Profile Creation/Publishing
+ Instant Text Messaging
+ Presence Awareness
+ Application Level Encryption
+ Autoresponder capabilities for absent/busy state
+ Persistent Configuration of JXTA Platform + JIM settings
the new relese covers bug fixes for critical bugs in the 0.1d release & some
feature improvements. The critical bugs preventing ping messages of not known users of being answered by a pong is now solved. The problem was located in the new pipe cache implementation, which is supposed to provide a more efficient mechanism communicating the jxta transport.
Further improvements where done in status latency. The new status implementation provides you with status change informations much faster then the old algorithm.
Thx for using J.I.M.
Don't hesitate to post bugs, comments, RFEs and other questions.
In addition to features mentioned there, we have 5134237 further things that need to be done to make JIM an IM for the future.
We'd like to encourage anybody who is excited by our projects
to join our team.

Changes:
+ Fix for critical bug in status reply when user is not known, leading
to unavailable status
+ Significant Reduction (~ 20s, to avg. ~3 sec in status change)
in status changes propagation time for buddies on peers with already
established transports.
+ Improved PeerGroup Search Horizon. This is hoped to be achieved by making
discovery-service requests more specific. In this way requests
are forwarded up to 3 hops by the discovery-service, leading to a
significant increased search horizon.
+ Fixes of a inconsistent auto-responder config behaviour. The auto-responder
should now act as you would expect it.
