All right, version 2.0.11 is already on extras-testing
Version 2.0.12 is also uploaded but it isn't yet available (this takes time, it's automatic and it's not under my control).

Changes for 2.0.11 are:
  • New icons (thanks to BlazingBird)
    Version 2.0.12 will fix the white background of the icons and make them to be transparent.
    Come on, people, it's not that hard to read the thread... I don't even know why I have to repeat this.

  • Better management of read and receipt reports (should show more up to date info on read status)
    With the upgrade to WA15 there are a couple things that aren't still ported to the new protocol, but this is the first change of a few that will help to report read/received messages as they should.

  • Some fixes that should avoid a couple segmentation faults and disconnections (coderus and me)
    Well, as the changelog line says itself, I hope this solves at least a couple of issues regarding frequent disconnections and maybe the segmentation faults.
    The latter are difficult to diagnose, so I'm doing some kind of defensive programming in the hopes that some more checks around the critical points solve that, but I can't be sure yet if this will work.

  • GUI option for max download size restored
    Someone notified me of this regression, so this option is back. It was due to a glitch in the UI code (wrong window sizes and the like).

I'm sorry I haven't fixed some standing issues, such as ghost contact and broadcast messages. To be honest, I don't have much time, so please be patient. I try to do as much as I can with the time I have.

Thanks to coderus as always, to the people that has helped me trace the segmentation faults and of course to BlazingBird for the new icons and ideas for the GUI. Given enough time, the GUI should improve, but it won't be fast.

And just to finish... I think I haven't ever made this request, but... if anyone is willing to code, I'd appreciate any kind of help you people can give. I see this project is very much wanted but I don't have the time nor the knowledge to do as much as you all want... so if anyone is bored and want to help I'd be really happy to have your cooperation

Best regards, I hope this release behaves better than the previous ones, but also that it is very short lived. All in all, 2.10.12 should be up tomorrow with the icon fixes. They are pretty cool as you can see from the snapshot BlazingBird took of its N900
