Today, after almost a year in development, we a proud to announce the start of the our open beta of the next version of Gfire, Version 0.9.0!
We have also set a release date, 1st April 2010.
New Feature Hightlights include:
- File Transfer
- Server Browser
- Avatar Support
- Clan/Guild Support
- Friends of Friends
- Windows Game Detection
- and many more features and tons of bug fixes!
We would like everyone to try and test out the beta to make sure we have a very stable release. However, please note that this is not a stable release, if you are wanting a stable release of Gfire, please carry on using 0.8.3 until we release 0.9.0.
Debian/Ubuntu users can download and install our ppa:
ppa:nwarrenfl/gfire
OR, You can download the beta from our SVN, this will require you to compile from source:

I tried it last week but everytime Gfire detects I’m running a game, it crashes Pidgin. Any way I can send a log or something and where?
Other than that, I like this coming version, especially the new config file and format. Then second, Xfire group-list detection. A long way from the previous versions!
Great job!
Yes, please submit us a bu report on our tracker including a backtrace of the crash!
