don't flame me saying you use gaim: I use gaim too.

The yahoo messenger for windows has lots of advanced features (and it's fun!) and it would be nice to see the same in linux

Have you seen the proposed updates for Gaim 2.0?

Will you support features such as voice chat, internet phones, or video chat?

Merging the gaim-vv code will take time, and we are not sure when it will be ready. Even then, there will remain work to be done before voice chat, video sharing, or internet phones will work on all protocols.

I don't use any IM but I think the idea is great to ask yahoo to port their thing to Linux.
So I have signed
But
www.petitiononline.com seems a joke , it does not need any confirmation when you receive the emaail.

So I can create 1000 signature a minute if you want!
Just put all the emails you know (and maybe even non existant ones).
