  Though it is fairly late in the process, I have to bring up the 
question of the wisdom of moving to gaim 2.0.0beta for the FC6 release. 
I used 2.0.0beta for a number of weeks a few months ago, and after I got 
over the fun of running the latest I found over I liked 2.0.0beta less 
than I liked 1.5.0, and went back to 1.5.0. On top of that it is still 
beta, and has been for a while. Development has been slow. So I wouldn't 
expect a final release before FC6. I also just read they are hoping to 
have a beta4 last weekend, but seemed to have slipped on that date.
