Pidgin 2.0 is now officially available, taking over where its predecessor GAIM left off, with an overhauled user interface and status system, as well as numerous bug and feature improvements.

But Egan had just been recruited by Google to help on Google Talk-related efforts, and users attributed the delay to Google, with one community member accusing Google of calling the shots.
However, it turns out AOL was the reason GAIM version 2.0's release was delayed. AOL had threatened legal action against GAIM developers because GAIM has AIM, AOL's acronym for its instant messenger service, in its name.
In response to legal threats from AOL, GAIM changed its name to Pidgin and the developers pumped the release is out.
Apparently, demand for the 2.0 release was pent up. The Pidgin Web site on which the Pidgin project is hosted was down for most of the day Friday.
