This is Beta so why pay for something buggy plus there are so many things available for free that are better. For example: Chatzilla, Conversation, Colloquy,
Opera, XChat Aqua.
I can see asking for donations but expecting someone to pay as shareware is ridiculous and to me takes alot of nerve. Sorry but people work hard for their money and it does not grow on trees.
You have done nothing to prove to me why I should have your program over someone elses? Maybe someone else has money to throw away but I sure do not.

You might find it interesting to know that the license doesn't just give you access to the most recent edition of the software, which you rightly point out is beta.

It also lets you use all version 3 editions.

These are most definitely not beta.

Ircle has a very long heritage, going back more than a decade.
To dismiss it as merely a beta is doing the developer a great disservice.

Also, it is hugely unfair to claim that Ircle has fewer features than the likes of Chatzilla.

Ircle may not look snazzy, or have a single window interface, but it has grown up through the years, and continues to serve well.

Besides, if there is a feature that Ircle doesn't provide out of the box, have a look around to see if there isn't a script that provides the required feature.
