Hi, I’m Matthew Needham, and while I’ve been actively involved with Adium message styles and IRC support for several years, it’s only with 1.4 that my contributions increased to the point where people starting calling me names like “developer”.

It’s been 2 weeks since we released version 1.4.  The response has been incredible.  Now, hot on its heels, comes 1.4.1 with even more ducky goodness.

We’re thrilled by the response so far to Adium 1.4, with over 540,000 downloads in just 4 days. We’re already hard at work on Adium 1.4.1. Please be sure to file constructive reports on Adium Trac – commenting in an existing ticket, if there is one, rather than clogging the system with duplicate tickets – [...]

We are thrilled to announce the release of Adium 1.4, the culmination of an epic two years of development effort. This release features Twitter and a significantly better experience in group chats – including support for IRC. It’s jam-packed with hundreds of other new features and bug fixes, too.
