I just upgraded to 2.0.0beta6 from v1.5 or thereabouts on WinXP Pro (w/ SP2).
My LiveJournal (which uses Jabber) buddies came through intact.
My other buddies (which I believe are all AOL protocol) are gone.
Where'd they go?
Can I get them back?
Silly me, I've been in this biz long enough to know
that I should have backed up that directory before doing the upgrade,
but I didn't.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Hmmm. That situation was true when I fired up Gaim directly from the installation program.
I exited that instance of GAIM, then restarted, and all my buddies are back now.
Tiny slightly scary nuisance.
