</I>Seconding that!
Also users may use old versions of software, but from a quality
assurance and security point of view, Mageia as a distribution
should not encourage such practics. Think about security fixes,
or potential bugs. Who will fix them if upstream doesn't?
>><i> As for other clients that could be provided in the repos there's Gwibber and

</I>><i> gwibber is in the repos, about others I don't know. I don't use that
