I'm re-opening this, because I'd really like to here from some of the
developers or packagers about leaving XChat or XChat-Gnome out of Dapper.
I've just spent a couple of hours using Gaim in Dapper Beta (LiveCD) and for
basic IRC it has a fairly bad UI, and seems worse than XChat-Gnome would be.
Having all the options & menus spread over several windows (three, usually)
isn't very useful; it's difficult to find a basic channel listing, and while
I'm not a great fan of XChat-Gnome, isn't an app that's actually designed for
IRC better than one that tries to do everything?
