Some of you might have noticed that the 0.98.2 version of aMSN was never released.. and you might be wondering why!
The reason is simple, we planned to release aMSN 0.98.2 for so long now, we had multiple opportunities to do it and we even tagged in SVN and released a tarball with the sources of aMSN 0.98.2 twice already.. but in the end, we never made that release official! One reason is that we always end up finding huge bugs the day after we start releasing it.. second reason is that we can’t release without proper windows, mac and linux binaries, and for some reason, we never had the time to create those packages, so we ended up with the source package released, no binary packages, and in the end, it’s too late.
When we finally got around to doing this new release today, we decided to skip the 0.98.2 version and go directly to 0.98.3 to avoid any confusion, because *maybe* someone downloaded the 0.98.2 source package at some point when it was available, maybe some distributions noticed the tag in SVN and started to ship that version.. So to avoid having two possible versions of aMSN with the same version number, we released 0.98.3!
I hope this satisfied everyone’s curiosity… if anyone actually noticed…
Now go grab your aMSN 0.98.3 anow and enjoy!
