1.2.10 is the veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeersion 

[Break: those "eeee...s" above are due to the nonexistent keyboard bug]

I was going to say that 1.2.10 is the version that SuSE 10.1 included. 
However, the version on sourceforge is 1.2.6, dated Jan 2002. That matches 
with development being stopped, they probably only do maintenance 
realeases.

Also, on wikipedia they say that it still uses GTK+ 1.x, it seems in order 
not to break third parties plugins. There has been a gtk 2.x for years, so 
it seems obvious that xmms can not continue as it is, that's why it has 
forked. So plain 'xmms' must be at least moribund, probably dead.
