I was on the beta testing team and have been using Beeper for a little over two years now.

The convenience of having an application to house all of your chat networks is amazing.

      You have no way of verifying that the client is only doing what it claims. The Open Source community is highly suspicious of proprietary software, doubly so when it’s based off of Open Source code.

      If youre okay with that then no worries, but ofr myself and many others it’s an absolute deal breaker.

          That’s fine… for you, right now.

          But I (and probably most users) don’t know them, over time people come and go, some even change who they are, businesses get sold. Only open source persists.
