EZ Intranet Messenger

Release 1.2.0

We are so proud that EZIM has come to another minor version release. After a year of work, lots of improvements were made. Of course, we would not be able to come this far without your support. So please let me borrow this moment to thank you all. Especially to those who have ever contributed (please see the CREDITS file), thank you very much!

Happy Halloween!

Release 1.1.7

This is another improvement release, which is also considered to be a release candidate of our next minor version 1.2.0. Minor UI improvements are added along with a new user manual. If nothing goes terribly wrong, version 1.2.0 is expected within this year.

Have a calm and peaceful September!

Release 1.1.6

After months of inaction, I finally had time (one day) to put back on this little project.

This is another improvement release where support for multi-recipient in private messages is the highlight. Button and state images are modified for better readability and are now manipulated with sprite files.

Despite of being such a haste, everything should be in place regarding to its functionalities. I hope you all like this latest release. Don't forget to feed us back if issue occurs.

Enjoy! & Thank you for your attention and support!

Release 1.1.5

This is an improvement release. The ACK protocol was modified for better conformance. User manual is updated to reflect changes done in prior versions.

Since changes made in the ACK protocol may yield to incompatibility with prior versions, all users are recommended to update to this latest version.

Enjoy!

Release 1.1.4

This is another improvement release. Changes made include support for multihomed hosts and Italian translations (thanks to joker joker).

For multihomed hosts, we can now specify the local IP, which is derived from the corresponding network interface, for EZIM to use in the preference window. IPv6 support is also added along with multihomed host support. However, since we don't have a router which supports IPv6 on the LAN side, things have not been tested thoroughly and your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

So please take some time to try it out and do not forget to report back if you happen to find any bug.

Release 1.1.3

This is an improvement release. Changes in this latest version include a case-insensitively sorted contact list, multiple local address support, and directory memorization for file dialogs.

Please take time to have a look. Your feedback will be very appreciated.

Enjoy!!! And Happy Valentine's Day!

Release 1.1.2

This is a bug fix release. A number of corrections are made since last version, data manipulation is improved, error handling is strengthened, and Portuguese translation is added (many thanks to Raphaneto Firmino).

While no protocol change means ezim-1.1.2 should be compatible to prior releases, all users are recommended to upgrade for its improved stability.

Please take time to try it out and tell us how you think about it.

Release 1.1.1

This is an improvement release with, as always, some minor issues fixed. Along with that, Spanish language support is added (thanks to Jose Miguel Diez de la Lastra for the actual translations), reply message quote format changed (thanks to katzul for the suggestion), and sound effect supports are implemented (thanks to pcci for the reminder).

While this latest should be fully compatible with the previous version (1.1.0), users are still recommended to upgrade for those new features and changes made to maximize their experience with ezim.

Enjoy, and please don't forget to send us feedback! :)

Release 1.1.0

This is a minor version release of ezim, as opposed to the typo we made during the previous release. Bugs are fixed and minimal error logging is added... finally. *phew*

In addition to the program itself, we have also modified the user manual (which is merely a text file) to reflect things which are added or changed.

Please take some time to try out this latest release and don't forget to give us some feedback in either the forums or the bug tracker.

Enjoy & Happy Halloween!

Release 1.0.3

This is another major version's release candidate, meaning that many things have changed and many of these changes make it incompatible with prior versions. Please take time to try it out and let us know if any issue occurs.

Thank you very much for your attention! I hope you like the changes. Enjoy! ;)

Release 1.0.2

Although this is another improvement release, the changes made to the underlying ACK protocol simply translate to the fact that this new release will not be able to communicate with prior versions properly. It was a hard decision to make, but we have sacrificed backward compatibility for higher efficiency and data consistency among the peers.

Please take time to upgrade and send us feedback when any issue occurs.

Thank you very much for your attention!

Release 1.0.1

This is an improvement release which is aimed at boosting up the overall performance and reducing resource usage at the same time. While the changes made in this release do not directly affect normal operations and may not be notifiable to users with abundant system resources, all users are recommended to take time to update and send us feedback when any issue occurs.

Thank you for your attention! Enjoy!

Release 1.0.0 (Stable)

After almost a year of work, our stable version 1.0.0 is finally here!!! Please go download a copy now if you haven't.

Cheers!

Release 0.1.4 (1.0.0 RC2)

This is a bugfix and improvement release, which is also considered as the RC2 of the upcoming stable version 1.0.0. Due to the fact that the identifier of the ACK protocol has changed, this new release will not be able to communicate with prior versions.

Things are getting closer, but we still need your feedback. Please stay tuned with us. Enjoy!

Release 0.1.3 (1.0.0 RC1)

This is another maintenance release, which is also considered as the first release candidate of the upcoming version 1.0.0. Only some minor changes regarding to the UI are made in this release, but we suggest all of you upgrade to this latest release.

It would be really appreciated if you could take time to find out and tell us what should be fixed but remained untouched, especially if you're using EZ Intranet Messenger on a Mac or a Solaris, because we simply don't have the resources to test it on our own.

Thank you for your time and attention!

Regards

Release 0.1.2

This is a maintenance release. Some of the potential mis-behaviors are fixed. More state icons are added, together with some modifications on the user interface. Although it is not a must, users are encouraged to update to this latest release.

Release 0.1.1

The major change in this release is the user state changer, which allows user to change the icon representing their online status: "online(normal)", "do not disturb", and "away". Please notice that this version may not be able to communicate with older versions properly. Every user is encouraged to update to this latest release. Please report any bug you may find and don't hesitate to post in the forums. Enjoy!

Release 0.1.0

The long-awaited system tray icon is the major change in this release. There are also other improvements made since our 0.0.9. So, please go check out the notes and changelog in the download section and don't forget to report any bug you've found. Enjoy!

Release 0.0.9

Trivial improvements are made in this release, which are mainly for file transmission. People who get irritated by the pop-ups in ezim-0.0.8 are encouraged to update. (Yeah! I hate pop-ups too... especially on my web browser. :P)

Release 0.0.8

This is an urgent bugfix release. A serious bug which is caused by a stupid mistake has been fixed. (if you want to know what it is, check out the source code and you'll see. :P)

Release 0.0.7

User interface changed, underlying protocol rewritten, and, of course, new features added!

Release 0.0.6

Security hole fixes, user interface enhancements, and German language support are added to this release.

Release 0.0.5

This is an urgent bugfix release which has fixed the issue that the client freezes when it encounters a firewall upon sending message. Together with some major changes which are considered as the preparations of the next new feature, there are some radical changes in the protocol in this release. As a result, this release will not be able to communicate with older version(s).

Release 0.0.4

New features, we can now see if other users have their "Plaza" window open. EZIM will launch and restore to the same size at the same location as it was, before it was closed during previous execution. Icons are also added to the interface.
