Adium X is gisteren voorzien van een update naar versie 1.2.1. Adium X is een multiprotocol instantmessaging programma voor Mac OS X die een verbinding kan maken met de netwerken van onder meer Jabber, ICQ, .NET Messenger Service en Bonjour. In versie 1.2, die twee weken geleden het levenlicht gezien heeft, is een groot aantal veranderingen doorgevoerd. Maar liefst 188 tickets met feature requests of bug reports werden tijdens de ontwikkeling gesloten. Enkele van de belangrijkste veranderingen zijn verbeterde mogelijkheden voor het beheren van accounts en zijn de Jabber-ondersteuning, de group chat (conferencing) en de lokalisering (vertaling) sterk verbeterd. Versie 1.2.1 is een zogenaamde onderhoudsrelease die enkele onvolkomenheden uit de vorige release moet oplossen. Verder is het geheugengebruik afgenomen en de Applescript dictionary verbeterd. Het volledige changelog van deze release ziet er als volgt uit:
