Please let me know your feelings on this subject. Is there an option "C" I didn't think of?

Presumably most OS X users are using JavaFIBS, which is a very impressive. As soon as you have a workable CocoaFibs I imagine a good few will try it out for curiosity sake but it will take lots of features to shift people over on a regular basis. That's my guess anyway.

I can't speak for the majority, but I use MacFIBS in Classic, and I don't use many features.  As long as I can play on a board and send commands to the shell (and get shouts and game chat in separate windows), I'd probably use any version of CocoaFIBS at all.
(Which isn't to say I wouldn't like more features as they become available)

What will the licensing be?
The mantra of open source is "release early, release often", just in case that applies.

Just wanted to reiterate my desire to volunteer as a tester on this project.  10.3 will be here soon.

FYI, I currently run MacFIBS in Classic.  It would be interesting to know how many Mac users run MacFIBS vs. JavaFIBS.

Well, I just switched to JavaFIBS.  The ratings graph and its ability to run in 10.3 instead of classic was what swung me.  Although the inability to gag people is a gaping hole.

Just add the person you want to gag to the Villains list and you won't have to hear from him/her again.
