Welcome to my fourth release of the chat software "Pidgin"! Pidgin was formerly
known as "Gaim", but had to be renamed because of legal reasons.
Pidgin is an IM client that supports many protocols, including AIM, ICQ, IRC,
and XMPP. The protocols Discord, Facebook, Skype and Twitter are also integrated
as external plugins.
Pidgin is NOT endorsed by, nor affiliated with, AOL nor any other company in ANY
way.
