Last I heard, many of the fire developers went over to work on Adium.

Hi david,
Well thats bad news, but on the flipside at least it wasn't just me
being dim this time. Really sucks though, does anybody know why this
is the case? Fire isn't in development anymore either that i know of,
so I guess there's not a hope of a fix?
Cheers...

Subject: Questions about IM, the dock, the quicklook panel, and VO
itself
Hey all,
Its good to be back on mac! Had my old g4 power book stolen awhile
ago so I
dropped off the face of the earth, but as of a few days ago I'm
rockin the
macbook pro and lovin it. Trouble is, in that time off, I've
completely
lost the knack for voiceover and sunk back into my old evil windows
mind-set
ways, so I hope you don't mind me throwing a few questions out.
1. for IM, particularly msn i guess, i used to use fire. Downloaded
version 1.5.6 just now, and either i'm losing my marbles or this
thing just
isn't as accessible as it once was? I can see the menues fine, but
the
preferences seem really tempramental and all i get in the accounts
window is
a table which appears to be blank. Anybody else seen this and have a
solution? and, has anyone had any luck with Adium from www.adiumx.com
?
2. This one is easier i hope. how do i add an app to the dock?
its been
driving me crazy.
3. The quicklook panel in leopard is neat... really handy! When you
activate it for audio files it previews them as well i was pleased to
discover, and apparently for the sighted user there's a way of
skipping
through the audio. I can find a pause button, and a display for ID
tags and
stuff like that, but no joy with the ability to see any sort of
slider or
scroll thingy with VO. Anybody else had more luck?
4. Loads of new VO options in Leopard... very cool to see. Maybe
I missed
it, but I didn't see a way to stop it announcing row numbers as you
move
through tables or list view though. If it exists, could someone
nudge me
toward it? Would speed things up a lot for me in some situations.
I'm totally out of touch with the list and current topics, so if
any of this
has been thrashed to death already please accept my apologies, and
feel free
to contact me off list in that case if you've got a spare few secs
to help
out.
Cheers...
Scott
