Public bug reported:

for example psi 0.12 RC1 released:


Hi all,

  After only a little over four months since 0.11's release, the Psi
team are delighted to announce that we've got the first release
candidate prepared for the 0.12 release. This is a great step towards a
more regular release cycle, which we're sure everyone will appreciate,
but this does not mean that 0.12 will be lacking in the new and cool.
Recognising that Psi's user interface could be more usable at times, the
majority of our changes for 0.12 revolve around usability. Please see
the README for full release details, but probably the most important
are:


Tabbed MUCs.

Tabbed chat has been very well received in previous releases, but has
only gone to highlight just how badly tabbed groupchat/muc was needed,
so we've gone ahead and implemented this. Those of us who've been using
this new feature for a while can't understand quite how we did without
it, and various options are available for you to tweak exactly whether
mucs and chats are tabbed together, or seperately, or not at all.


Improved roster search.

The roster search function has been improved, and will now filter the
roster down to only matching contacts, making it much easier to find
your contacts in the list.


Bookmarked conferences.

MUCs/groupchats can now be bookmarked (subject to server support, which
almost every server has), so the user interface provides quick access to
favourite mucs, and also to autojoin settings at login time.


Advanced option exposure.

While we're confident our default settings will work for most of our
users, we know how much many of you like to tinker with settings and to
tweak Psi to be uniquely yours. Now all the options in Psi have been
converted to a new internal format which allows us to provide access in
the UI to every option. Those of you familiar with Firefox's
about:config will no doubt feel at home here, and will find the options
in the Advanced tab of the options window (be warned that, of course,
these options are only intended to be changed if you're sure of what
you're doing and with a recent config backup, some of these may not be
for the faint of heart).


We'd like to thank all the contributors, including those who've
submitted patches for us, tested for bugs, fixed bugs, supported other
users and translated Psi, and anyone else who helps the project in any
way.


Now, please, go forth and test:
