Here's what's changed since beta 1

BUG: beta 1, Buddy List updates were not being saved (Fixed 4/20) 
Added Chat titlebar flash option -- only if minimized (Done 4/20) 
BUG: beta 1, Serialization crashed if no custom tabs were available in some cases (Fixed 4/20) 
BUG: beta 1, Shared List sorting was broken if server columns had been rearranged (Fixed 4/20) 
Add rclick options to rule list (copy value to clipboard, set and reset rule scroll lock (ensures rule is visible when display is updated)) (Done 4/20) 
Add UpdateCmdUI handlers for the chat menu / toolbar (Done 4/19) 
BUG: beta 1, Full map name lookups were broken if the map name wasn't in the MapData.txt file (Fixed 4/19) 
BUG: beta 1, Custom tabs now has a memory leak. Select properties on a custom tab. Cancel. Memory leak results. (Fixed 4/16) 
BUG: beta 1, Q2 Profile: I'm guessing that any model or skin that is larger that the default male/female model will not display in the current display box in GameSpy, because the box is too small.  (Fixed 4/16) 
Add selected game type to Shared List announcement (e.g., Nick is now running a Quake2 shared server list) (Done 4/14) 
BUG: beta 1, Favorite servers were being deleted if a source didn't report it during an update (Fixed 4/14) 
BUG: beta 1, Unbound servers were being deleted when they were deleted in another source list (Fixed 4/14) 
BUG: beta 1, Delete button on Find Player dialog was not deleting the correct player entry (Fixed 4/13) 
After launching a shared list game the shared list will now close. (Done 4/12) 
Added ability to add a server to the unbound list as long as unbound is selected, regardless of how many other server lists are also selected. (Done 4/12) 
Add a "browse" function when setting up the command line options (Done 4/12) 
People just don't understand the ctrl-click mechanism of selecting different sources. Come up with an easier method. (Done 4/12) 
Add ability to resize the Shared Results dialog (Done 4/12) 
Need button on chat for collaborate (Done 4/11) 
If a gamedir doesn't exist, GameSpy will no longer issue a +set game <dir> (Done 4/11) 
BUG: beta 1, Quake2 personal & custom cfgs were being ignored (Fixed 4/11) 
BUG: beta 1, Chat: If you are in a channel, click #join, type in a new channel name, it does not stay saved in the dropdown box. (Fixed 4/10) 
BUG: beta 1, Chat: When im trying to join a Channel with a Key (+k) im adding in the join dialog the key in the password field and I hit OK but its not working the new chan window apear but its say the channel is +k (Fixed 4/10) 
BUG: beta 1, If you change your chat nick or identd it won't become "active" till you quit GSpy and restart. (Fixed 4/10) 
Server column positions aren't being saved? (Server columns couldn't be resized smaller than the caption ... Fixed 4/9) 
BUG: beta 1, When updating the master server list, the PQ HW master duplicates (Done 4/9 - master.import updated) 
We need to "version" the CTCP message for shared server lists, just in case. So if the chatter sends a hosting announcement, if it's a higher version, we ignore it. If it's a lower version, and we can load from that version, then we accept. (Done 4/9) 
Make 1 second a valid option for ping timeouts in QuakeWorld (Done 4/9) 
There is no way to tell what kinda game they are hosting for in a shared host ( ask them :) ) 
I've noticed every time I start a multiplayer game it changes my skin back to the default. Q2 no longer "remembers" my skin (This is when the person uses a custom game type. It doesn't reexec gamespy.cfg... Not our issue.) 
BUG: beta 1, After minimizing gamespy with the chat open and restoring the chat, the chat box is blank (Fixed 4/9) 
Fix Chat/Query windows so they don't have a userlist (Done 4/9) 
Games For Tab now has a CCheckListBox (Done 4/9) 
Made taskbar blink when there is chat activity and the window's not active in chat. (Done 4/9) 
BUG: beta 1, A user came in and reported that when you add a buddy, close GSpy, and when you restart he's not there in the list. (Done 4/9) 
BUG: beta 1, When minimizing gamespy to the tray, mouse clicks aren't handled correctly.  Rightclicking opens a menu that I can't make go away by clicking elsewhere on the desktop. (Fixed 4/9) 
I have a cd player in the tray, and it's next to gamespy.  I double click on gamespy, but the cd player gets one of the clicks and advances to the next track on my cd (the users other taskbar program opening up is a bug in that program, because it waits for mouseup without checking mousedown.) 
In chat, the user name columns autosize properly now, so no more horizontal scroll bars (Done 4/9) 
Under options, you have the choice to either exit or minimize on game launch. Aren't those mutually exclusive? I would have expected those two to be grouped and radio buttoned... (Done 4/8) 
Text field on filter entry screen isn't large enough to hold dmflags: rules ... enlarge it. (Done 4/6) 
BUG: beta 1, Custom tabs were not looking in correct directories for config files and game dirs (Fixed 4/5)
