 	libpurple:
-	* Fix transfer of buddy icons, custom smileys and files from the
-	latest WLM 9 official client. (Thomas Gibson-Robinson)
 	* Fix a crash when removing an account with an unknown protocol id.
-	* Large (multi-part) messages on MSN are now correctly re-combined.
+	* Beta support for SSL connections for AIM and ICQ accounts.  To
+	  enable, check the "Use SSL" option from the Advanced tab when
+	  editing your AIM or ICQ account. (Paul Aurich)
+	* Fix a memory leak in SILC. (Luke Petre)
+	* Fix some string handling in the SIMPLE prpl, which fixes some buddy name
+	  handling and other issues. (Paul Aurich, Marcus Sundberg)
+	* Implement support for resolving DNS via the SOCKS4 proxy (SOCKS4a).
+
+	ICQ:
+	* Fix retrieval of status messages from users of ICQ 6.x, Miranda, and
+	  other libpurple clients. (Daniel Ljungborg)
+	* Change client ID to match ICQ Basic 14.34.3096.  This fixes publishing
+	  of buddy icons and available messages.
+	* Properly publish status messages for statuses other than Available.
+	  ICQ 6.x users can now see these status messages. (Daniel Ljungborg)
+	* Fix receipt of messages from the mobile client Slick. (David Jedelsky)
+
+	MSN:
+	* Fix transfer of buddy icons, custom smileys, and files from the
+	  latest Windows Live Messenger 9 official client. (Thomas
+	  Gibson-Robinson)
+	* Large (multi-part) messages are now correctly re-combined.
+	* Federated/Yahoo! buddies should now stop creating sync issues at
+	  every signin.  You may need to remove duplicates in the Address
+	  Book.  See the FAQ for more information.  Thanks to Jason Lingohr
+	  for lots of debugging and testing.
+	* Messages from Yahoo! buddies are no longer silently dropped.
+	* We now save and use the CacheKey for ABCH SOAP requests.
+	* Don't try to parse Personal Status Messages or Current Media if they
+	  don't exist.
+	* Convert from ISO-8859-1 encoding to UTF-8 when no charset is specified
+	  on incoming messages.  This should fix some issues with messages from
+	  older clients.
+	* Force sending the font "Segoe UI" if outgoing formatting doesn't specify
+	  a font already.
+	* Queue callbacks when token updates are in progress to prevent two token
+	  update attempts from trampling each other.
+	* Fixed a crash on Windows when removing a buddy's alias.
+	* Update the Address Book when buddies' friendly names change.  This
+	  prevents seeing an outdated alias or not seeing an alias at all for
+	  buddies who are offline when you sign in.
+	* Update tokens for FindMembership and ABFindAll SOAP requests.
+	* We no longer try to send empty messages.  This could happen when a
+	  message contained only formatting and that formatting was not supported
+	  on MSN.
+	* Buddies on both the Allow and Block list are now automatically
+	  removed from the Allow list.  Users with this problem will now no
+	  longer receive an ADL 241 error.  The problematic buddy should now
+	  appear on the buddy list and can be removed or unblocked as desired.
+
+	XMPP:
+	* Resources using __HOSTNAME__ substitution will now grab only the short
+	  hostname instead of the FQDN on systems which put the FQDN in the
+	  hostname. (Matěj Cepl)
+	* No longer send a 'to' attribute on an outgoing stanza when we haven't
+	  received one.  This fixes a registration bug as described in ticket
+	  #6635.
+
+	Pidgin:
+	* Tooltip windows now appear below the mouse cursor. (Kosta Arvanitis)
+	* Tooltip windows now disappear on keypress events. (Kosta Arvanitis)
+	* Tooltip windows no longer linger when scrolling the buddy list. (Kosta
+	  Arvanitis)
