Gammu News
Looking for Windows developers
Gammu and Wammu for Windows start to really lack behind their other OS variants. If you are able to help, please contact us on mailing list or privately.
This has been already announced almost year ago, but the situation is still getting worse for Windows builds. This is especially true for Wammu, where bug#1086 has hit quite a lot of users and we're unable to do something about that right now.
So if you're willing to help, you're welcome.

Support Gammu and Wammu
Did you know you can support Gammu/Wammu on various social networks? You can like it on Facebook, share little bit of money with it using Flattr or just follow it on Identi.ca or Twitter.
This way your experiences can be spread to more users giving Gammu even bigger user base and more appreciation to its authors.
If you don't like these way, there are still other ways to contribute or you can simply directly donate to the authors.
