AdiumX 0.7
I've been a little busy over the last few days, but for those who aren't running the beta (as, well, the beta tells you there's a new version) it's worth noting that AdiumX is out of beta and 0.7 is out for your enjoyment after beta after beta and release candidate after release candidate. When I was snagging it last night, not all the mirrors had it yet, so you might have to clicky clicky a bit.
I could poke a little at how many I was downloading and installing, but really it was all going towards making this release as solid as possible. My prior notes on some of the changes are here. It's a pretty fun release.

You know, I'd really like to get excited by AdiumX but I can't until libgaim improves its proxy support. We have to use a proxy at work and iChat works fine with it. AdiumX can't even log in. Argh.

The latest Adium seems pretty slow, maybe it's just me. However, the lack of performance is welcomed due to the features it provides.... And we all know that good features are hard to come by in comparison. In short, performance will get better.
That said, my G4 is suffering when I have several tabs open, even in the most minimalist of configurations.

Would be glad to help you resolve the performance issue you are having if possible, as this is not a common experience. Let me know if you want to follow up - evan [at] adiumx.com
Agreed. I didn't try out the beta, so the 0.7 release was a big leap forward for me. Took me a while to get the colour combo I wanted for the buddy list, and to get the right message theme for me, which I decided on the one named Clean on the AdiumXtras site. Best IM client I have ever used, IMO.
