Why is this program constantly being upgraded?
If you really wanted an answer to this seems like you should take a look at the changelog. There is a link off of the pidgin home page to the latest changelog.
I truly regret sharing it because it's CONSTANTLY revision versions.
What the heck does this mean? You are reticent to recommend it because it is under active development? One of the ways that I evaluate software is whether it is being actively maintained. Software that is not being updated is likely to contain unpatched security problems. This is especially true of software that implements an internet protocol, and pidgin implements several of them.
Does anyone have any ideas when it will remain stable for 6 months or more?
Debian has a longer release cycle. Maybe you should consider dropping Windows.
It's truly a hassle, and I'm considering using something more stable. Any ideas?
Hard for me to believe that even on Windows this is difficult.
