+**Notice for Windows users:** We are aware of an issue with the installer
+failing to download the dictionaries used for spellchecking. We are currently
+working on a fix and hope to have this resolved as soon as possible.
+
+Another minor version of Pidgin has been released, 2.14.4. It has been many
+years since we were able to get three releases out to our users in such a short
+amount of time (less than a month!), something that we are certainly very happy
+to see and hope you are as well.
+
+The complete changelog for this release is the following:
+
+General:
+* Use `LT_LIB_M` to find the math library. This should simplify things for
+ various distros including the BSD's. ({{% review 608 %}}) (and, Justin
+ Lechner)
+
+libpurple:
+* Removed a dangling reference to oscar that was causing the unit tests to fail.
+ ({{% review 605 %}}) (Gary Kramlich)
+* Update `purple-remote` and `purple-url-handler` to have a Python 3 shebang.
+ ({{% review 609 %}}) (Richard Laager)
+
+Pidgin:
+* Install our AppData file into the `$prefix/share/metainfo`. ({{% review 607
+ %}}) (Lars Wendler)
+* Re-enable the Gevolution plugin and set the evolution-data-server requirement
+ to >= 3.6. ({{% review 610 %}}) (Ed Catmur, Lars Wendler)
+
+Windows-Specific Changes:
+* Output pkg-config files so that our Windows builds can be seen by meson. Grim
+ owes a blog post on how this works. ({{% review 615 %}}) (Gary Kramlich)
+* Update the debug symbols download in the installer to the inetc plugin. ({{%
+ review 627 %}}) (Gary Kramlich)
+* Make sure the uninstaller removes all files that we install. ({{% review 612
+ %}}) (Gary Kramlich)
+
+You can find 2.14.4 on
+[SourceForge](https://sourceforge.net/projects/pidgin/files/Pidgin/2.14.4/).
+
+We hope everyone enjoys this release and the fixes it brings. Remember that if
+you have any questions or comments we have a [variety of channels]({{< ref
+"about/community" >}}) where you can reach out to us.
