Slashdot has this story: “A few days ago, we were contacted by one of the developers of Everybuddy, a
“universal” instant messenger client for Linux. It seems that they were scoping out
the competition, and found a Windows-only program offered by a company called
DSF Internet … This program, MessengerA2Z, seemed to offer all the functionality of
Everybuddy for Windows machines. Probably because it was based on Everybuddy’s GPL’d code.”
