I agree. Gizmo's decision to treat Linux as a second-class platform and to treat non-debian distributions as third-class citizens is a huge mistake.
I have wanted to like the project for a good while, but they have not made it easy for me and I have finally standardized on Skype for now, which means that it will be a while before I switch because it was hard enough to move my contacts from MSN or AOL to skype.
Their loss. Gizmo could have and does have a lot of unrealized potential. In fact, I was really rooting for it, but I think they simply don't have the developer resources or the willingness to bring true multiplatform support.
Supporting Suse, Mandrake, Fedora, Debian and a static tar.gz installation just like skype does is all they would need to do.
