ANNOUNCE: Gossip 0.7.6

[Mikael Hallendal <micke imendio com>]

Imendio is very happy to announce version 0.7.6 of our instant messaging
client Gossip!

Gossip is an instant messaging client for GNOME with an easy-to-use
interface, providing users of the GNOME Desktop with a friendly way to
keep in touch with their friends.

This release has had quite a few updates since the last release about 2
months ago. For people using the group chats this release will include a
couple of fixes for the most obvious bugs. Unfortunately there is still
a bit of work to get them to work perfectly.

This release also includes support to edit your own vcard thanks to
Martyn Russel who provided a patch for this. Ross Burton added a feature
that a lot of people have asked for and that is the possibility to
resubscribe to a contact if the subscription isn't both ways.

Furthermore there has been a number of smaller bug fixes and a couple of
very rare crashes has been found and fixed. I also took some time and
fixed a couple of smaller things that makes the entire experience of
using Gossip better.
