Fire Troubleshooting ReportLeopard issues? - Version: 1.5.6, 11/19/2007 08:43AM PST

I just upgraded to Leopard (10.5.1) last night, and Fire doesn't work for me anymore. It freezes when it tries to connect to my account and then closes. Anyone else having this problem?

The lead developer puts it bluntly on the front page at http://www.fireim.org/

We are saddened to announce that there will be no future versions of Fire. There are several reasons for this end, but the most notable is the loss of developers. Fire's development had dwindled to few developers who do not wish to continue the project alone. In addition, another major contributing factor is the fact that all but one of Fire's IM libraries is no longer in active development.

Fire ReviewAgain problems with msn - Version: 1.5.6, 1/1/2007 02:33PM PST

..but please don't tell that Audium is better!
Where the infos profiles? The groups? (the console?) The off-line buddies?
Fire is slim, not obtrusive, elegant even if not 'nice while Audium is redundant, baroque, bloated like a vulgar microshit messenger.
There is not a better Fire, even if needed (audio/video/file transfer is not up to date for near all chats) and.. the ridiculous is that windoz users envy us for it!
When we will lose definitively Fire.. it will be a sad day!
