[Bug 38694] Re: No XChat in Dapper

[Brian Burger]

I'm re-opening this, because I'd really like to here from some of the developers or packagers about leaving XChat or XChat-Gnome out of Dapper.

I've just spent a couple of hours using Gaim in Dapper Beta (LiveCD) and for basic IRC it has a fairly bad UI, and seems worse than XChat-Gnome would be.

Having all the options & menus spread over several windows (three, usually) isn't very useful; it's difficult to find a basic channel listing, and while I'm not a great fan of XChat-Gnome, isn't an app that's actually designed for IRC better than one that tries to do everything?
