[Announce] Gossip 0.5

[Mikael Hallendal <micke imendio com>]

Imendio is happy to announce the release of Gossip 0.5. We have, with
help from others, added a couple of new features that will help you use
Gossip more efficiently. A lot of small bugs have been fixed aswell.

Special thanks go out to Thomas Reynolds and Nicolas Peninguy for
helping with lots of bug fixing and the composing notification.

What is Gossip?
===============
Gossip aims at making Jabber easy to use and tries to give GNOME users a
real user friendly way of chatting with their friends. We are not there
yet but we are working hard on getting Gossip to be the natural choice
for people who want instant messaging without fuzz.

What is new in 0.5?
===================
Support for composing notification, don't clear chat windows when
closing them and don't pop up chat windows directly. Other smaller
changes include fixing nick completion, renaming contacts, as well as
some new translations (sr, sr Latn, pt).

What is Jabber?
=============== 
Jabber is an open instant messaging XML-based protocol. It can be used
instead of ICQ, AIM, MSN, ... or together with them through gateways
(not supported in Gossip yet).
