A new Wauwl has been released today. Version 2.0.9 has some major improvements under the hood. As earlier version had some trouble keeping the connection alive, this release addresses that by putting the XMPP Service, which holds the connection, into a foreground process. See the complete list of fixes, new features and improvements below.
