A number of users reported problems with 1.0rc2 crashing whenever someone tried to talk. 1.0rc2.2 is now available for download which should correct this problem. My apologies for not catching this.

There have also been some reports about Mangler hanging when starting up. This is caused by errors reading the configuration file, but we cannot reproduce. If this is happening to you, you can remove your ~/.manglerrc file (save your server list information!) and start Mangler again. This will recreate the file.
