Hello all, While my download of Mountain Lion seems to be crawling along, I wanted to bring up the discussion of what versions to support with Adium again.
As far as I know, the rule has always been supporting the current and previous version. Adium 1.5.x has supported 10.6.8 and up, and I propose to leave that this way. I think 1.5.x has been a pretty stable release, and with (*fingers crossed*) most of the transcript viewer related crashes and bugs fixed, I don't think it'll need much extra work. From my recent commit on (http://hg.adium.im/adium/rev/a8fef30df88b), default will require 10.7 to build. This gives us two options for 1.6: branch from just before this, let it stabilize for a while and then release, with only the new preferences as a new major feature. Or make 1.6 require 10.7+, add some more new features with the shiny new APIs, and then release. My preference would be the second. If we update the UI that much, it would be a lot nicer if we could use the new localization features of Lion. I also don't think it would work very well having to test on 3 different OS versions. But I just know some people are going to disagree with me. :) Our Sparkle stats suggest the number of Lion users surpassed our number of SL users only a couple of weeks ago while it has been out for more than a year. So, thoughts? Regards, Thijs Alkemade
