Q: I have a question about GTK2.
-A: Don't ask untill the changelog says it works.
+A: Our GTK2 port is in progress, the 0.59.x release series will be entirely Gtk1.2 and entirely devoid of new features.
+0.60 will be the first release with Gtk2 supported, and will no longer have support for Gtk1.2. We are not sure when we will
+be finished with this port, but if you want, you can use cvs to try it out.

+Q: I'm getting lots of "Already in Opposite list" errors on msn, why?
+
+A: The reason this happens is because you have a screenname in both
+your permit list and your deny list. There are two ways to fix this: the correct
+way and the quick way. The correct way is to go to tools->preferences (tools->privacy
+in 0.60 or latter), and manually scan the list and remove the duplicate entries. The
+quick way is to remove the msn .blist file from the ~/.gaim directory. This will have
+a side effect: the msn server stores the screennames of your contacts, but does not
+store what group they are in, so you will have to re-sort your msn contacts into the
+appropriate groups.

Q: Will Gaim be ported to Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP?
-A: When GTK+ 2.0 comes out and compiles well against <a
-href="http://www.cygwin.com/">Cygwin</a>, and Gaim has been ported to it, Gaim
-should work. It will not happen before GTK+ 2.0 is ported to Windows, though.
+A: Gaim has released a Windows version. Right now it is an "alpha" release, the
+most buggy type of release a project can make. For some people it works very reliably,
+for others it is unusable.
-Q: Will there be a QT dock app?
+Q: How do I put Gaim in my Panel, or dock Gaim?
-A: Right now Gaim, is done entirely in C and GTK+, so a QT dock app is not in
-planned. You can either write a patch to do this yourself, or wait until the
-core and UI of Gaim are split. A QT UI will probably be considered at that
-time.
+A: In 0.59.x and below, Gaim only has support for Gnome's panel. Once 0.60 is released
+Gaim will have replaced the gnome-applet with a docklet that conforms to the standards at
+<a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/">www.freedesktop.org</a>. KDE supports this in the current cvs
+(what will be the 3.1 release), as does Gnome. Gaim will insert the docklet in any System Tray
+implementation that conforms to these standards, so feel free to write one for your window manager
+of choice.
