Bad news (at least temporary): a lot of applications seems to be using old framework (Sparrow, Skype, ruby gem, etc.).

I'm not sure how temporary this is. If I were releasing a desktop app that used Growl, I'd be rolling my own replacement right now ;(

It's easy enough functionality, when you're only supporting one app, and I don't want functionality for my-users to depend on a paid app they may not have.

Adium was a big driver for Growl adoption. It'll be interesting to see what they do.
