This is to announce the Gimmie version 0.2.3 release. Gimmie is a unique desktop organizer designed to allow easy interaction with all the applications, contacts, documents and other resources you use every day. Gimmie can be run as a stand-alone application or as a GNOME Panel-applet.

To see some pictures of Gimmie in action, check out the Developer Resource Page located at: http://beatnik.infogami.com/Gimmie.

This is the third release since the Panel-applet version was introduced, and there has been great progress. 0.2.3 comes hot on the heals of the 0.2.2 release, with an important crash fix that some early testers uncovered.
