*** Plucked rev b932d4f94f9c771877b6a8a6a1d7dd3ea9c08005 ([e-mail]): Treat FQY responses with no network ID as on the Passport network. Fixes #9240. *** Plucked rev 76f13d0fc7fbff369d01187fcc1b8f517854e119 ([e-mail]): These strcmp checks are for equality, meaning a return of 0. *** Plucked rev a7bd74cbe46498f1390a4d33cce115bdd123a68d ([e-mail]): Add a data parameter for FQY callbacks and remove the pending users list that was previously used instead. *** Plucked rev 84f6765b71f2ad2d6c7cddd461114ab5fc758b72 ([e-mail]): We can't get an ADD error if we never send an ADD command. *** Plucked rev 6d3a0b29b22baeedf393b76044dde689caef3b45 ([e-mail]): Add a msn_notification_post_rml analog. *** Plucked rev 0e2af7d2799397628273f534fac31e6dd7c6fe14 ([e-mail]): Remove some left over code. *** Plucked rev 0841af13da028245cc279ce8f927ff05c0367ae1 ([e-mail]): Check network type, and send an FQY if necessary, when modifying the allow and block lists. Before, users who were not added by you (i.e. spammers) would have no network type and cause disconnects. This should fix it. Fixes #8977. *** Plucked rev a1463341c3bf211c429282870babdb4785c7d817 ([e-mail]): Remove notification-server group commands ADG, REG, RMG as groups are now handled in the AddressBook with SOAP calls.

If you plan to use Pidgin, Finch and libpurple from our Monotone repository,
PLEASE read this message in its entirety!

Pidgin, Finch, and libpurple are a fast-moving project with a somewhat regular
release schedule.  Due to the rate of development, the code in our Monotone
repository 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 the code in our Monotone repository _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!) use only released versions.  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, and/or libpurple, please
check out the information available at: http://developer.pidgin.im

By far the best documentation, however, is the documented code.  If you have
doxygen, you can run "make docs" 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, and
libpurple developers by email at [e-mail] 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!

Patches should be posted as Trac tickets at: http://developer.pidgin.im
