Hey Flockstars,

Update: Flock 1.0.3, which contains the fix to the "is is" bug, is now live here on www.flock.com. Auto-updates will be activated later this week.

As you may have noticed this morning, when you input a status to Facebook with your People sidebar it adds an extra "is" (resulting in fun statuses like "Evan Hamilton is is not stuttering, really").  Additionally, all your friends will have "is is" in their status.  This is due to a Facebook API change that has created a minor but visible Flock bug.  Facebook is trying out status without the "is", to allow more freedom of status expression.

We're working on a fix at this moment; assuming Facebook's experiment is a success, we're hoping to have that fix for you next week.  Flock will push an auto-update as soon as it's available.

In the meantime, start following Flock's Twitter account for instant updates about bugs, builds, buzz and more at www.twitter.com/flocker.

Flock on,

Evan Hamilton
