I will write my reasons here as well:

- I am really busy (but as you said, when you are motivated enough you
can always find some minutes
- My computer is F#&@ed up, I can't run amsn (sometimes i can for a
short while, but it always freezes and i can't seem to find the reason,
but my best guess is that my hardware is buggy since my whole machine
freezes on me randomly)
- combine the 2 above and you have the situation where when you finally
have some time, you first need to restart the pc since it is frozen,
then start up all the programs you need (did i mention the pc is slow?)
go to work, test amsn with new changes, hope it doesn't freeze before
you see what you want, kill wish, test amsn with new changes, hope it
doesn't freeze before you see what you want, kill wish, test amsn with
new changes, hope it doesn't freeze before you see what you want, see
that you did something wrong, repeat above steps, reboot pc because it
hung, try again, give up and go try to make some money to buy new
hardware.. I expect to be able to buy a new system in a month, people
that have me in there msn list will notice when i did because then i
will always be online again like i was before (status away of course ;))

Other then that, 0.96 is supposed to be a bugfix release if i remember
correctly, so that is probably one of the reasons for the lack of new
features..
