If you plan to use Pidgin, Finch & libpurple mtn, PLEASE read this message in its entirety! Pidgin, Finch & libpurple is a fast-moving project with a somewhat regular release schedule. Due to the rate of Pidgin, Finch & libpurple development, mtn undergoes frequent bursts of massive changes, often leaving behind brokenness and partial functionality while the responsible developers rewrite some portion of code or seek to add new features. What this all boils down to is that mtn _WILL_ sometimes be broken. Because of this, we ask that users who are not interested in personally tracking down bugs and fixing them (without a lot of assistance from the developers!) avoid mtn and use releases. Since releases will be made often, this should not prevent anyone from using the newest, shiniest features -- but it will prevent users from having to deal with ugly development bugs that we already know about but haven't gotten around to fixing. If you are interested in hacking on Pidgin, Finch & libpurple, please read README and HACKING, and take note of the issues in PROGRAMMING_NOTES. (Note that they may be somewhat out of date at times.) Win32 developers, please read README.mingw. By far the best documentation, however, is the documented code. Not all parts of Pidgin, Finch & libpurple have yet been documented, but the major subsystems are falling fast. If you have doxygen, you can use the Doxyfile in the toplevel directory to generate pretty documentation. Otherwise (or even if you do!), the header files for each subsystem contain documentation for the functions they contain. For instance, conversation.h contains documentation for the entire purple_conversation_* API, and account.h contains documentation for the purple_account_* API. If you have questions, please feel free to contact the Pidgin, Finch & libpurple developers by email at devel@pidgin.im or on IRC at irc.freenode.net in #pidgin. Please do as much homework as you can before contacting us; the more you know about your question, the faster and more effectively we can help you! Send patches to Pidgin, Finch & libpurple mailing list, devel@pidgin.im, or post them in the tracker at http://developer.pidgin.im.
