Debian, GPL, Openssl - the story

Because of Debian packages we Discuss about GPL and Openssl related stuff. It's hard to say.... but it was a huge mistake choosing GPL license for GNU Gadu, in my oppinion this license should be abandoned and forgot forever.... it's just evil.
However, we learn new things all the time.... as a results there will be internal libgadu ported to GNU TLS library (GPL License)... hope this help.
However ssl feature is not used by gadu-gadu protocol in real world AFAIK :)

2.2.5 welcomes spring time

Changes worth of attention:

- Support for skins comatible with Gadu-Gadu,
- fixes and stabilization of code for status changes,
- fixes of Tlen.pl plugin after changes in 2.2.4,

- in CVS, in gg2-plugins module we have "notify" plugin, which will be moved to main tree soon, we also have some
updates in XMMS support. Please test plugins developed in that CVS module - more testing and bug reporting will allow
us to put it in the main tree of GNU Gadu earlier.

This is not a joke... ;-)
