Testimonial

In Windows I used programs like Trillian and Everybuddy, and I really like something similar, and I found some. But some of them cost money, and some are very reduced. Then I found Fire… I have to say that the file transfer function works better than the official version.

Credit

Thanks to Jaden for the original design of this site. The colors and organization remain, though the code has been completely rewritten.

Online Resources

Public Forums are now available. There are several public Fire mailing lists. Based on your interests, you are welcome to subscribe to some or all of them. There is also an IRC room that sometimes contains a Fire dev or two.

Forums

Public Forums: Want to talk about something related to Fire? Visit the forum and join in the discussion. We cover problems and their fixes, development, themes, and future features. Basically talk about anything Fire.

Mailing Lists

fire-talk (Subscribe/Unsubscribe): General discussion happens here. Features, bugs, questions about using any of the services, icon debates. This is the first list most people subscribe to.
fire-localization (Subscribe/Unsubscribe): Are you fluent in a language other than English? We'd love your help localizing Fire.
fire-development (Subscribe/Unsubscribe): This is the list for questions and discussion relating to the source-level development of Fire. Having trouble compiling? Ask here first.
fire-commits (Subscribe/Unsubscribe): Every time someone checks something into the sourceforge CVS tree, this list gets notified. Be warned: this list can be extremely high traffic at times.

Please Note: Sending e-mails to any of these lists asking to be unsubscribed is not going to get you off the list.

The IRC Channel

There is a Fire channel, #fire, on the Freenode IRC network. You are more than welcome to drop by to chat about Fire. To configure Fire to join the IRC channel:

Leave the Password field blank and the checkbox checked

Save the account and connect to it
Choose "Add Buddy..." from the Buddies menu
Name the buddy "fire" and leave the Alias blank
Choose "irc" as the Service and choose the Group you'd like the channel to appear in
Save the new buddy, and you're done! The "fire" buddy will appear in your Buddies List. Double-clicking it will join the channel and allow you to chat with the other people that are in it.
