+/**
+ * @file status.h Status API
+ * @ingroup core
+ *
+ * A brief explanation of the status API:
+ *
+ * GaimStatusType's are created by each PRPL.  They outline the
+ * available statuses of the protocol.  AIM, for example, supports
+ * an available state with an optional available message, an away
+ * state with a mandatory message, and an invisible state (which is
+ * technically "independent" of the other two, but we'll get into
+ * that later).  GaimStatusTypes are very permanent.  They are
+ * hardcoded in each PRPL and will not change often.  And because
+ * they are hardcoded, they do not need to be saved to any XML file.
+ *
+ * A GaimStatus can be thought of as an "instance" of a GaimStatusType.
+ * If you're familiar with object-oriented programming languages
+ * then this should be immediately clear.  Say, for example, that
+ * one of your AIM buddies has set himself as "away."  You have a
+ * GaimBuddy node for this person in your buddy list.  Gaim wants
+ * to mark this buddy as "away," so it creates a new GaimStatus.
+ * The GaimStatus has its GaimStatusType set to the "away" state
+ * for the oscar PRPL.  The GaimStatus also contains the buddy's
+ * away message.  GaimStatuses are sometimes saved, depending on
+ * the context.  The current GaimStatuses associated with each of
+ * your accounts are saved so that the next time you start Gaim,
+ * your accounts will be set to their last known statuses.  There
+ * is also a list of saved statuses that are written to the
+ * status.xml file.  Also, each GaimStatus has a "savable" boolean.
+ * If "savable" is set to FALSE then the status is NEVER saved.
+ * All GaimStatuses should be inside a GaimPresence.
+ *
+ *
+ * A GaimStatus is either "indepedent" or "exclusive."
+ * Independent statuses can be active or inactive and it doesn't
+ * affect anything else.  However, you can only have one exclusive
+ * status per GaimPresence.  If you activate one exlusive status,
+ * then the previous exclusive status is automatically deactivated.
+ *
+ * A GaimPresence is like a collection of GaimStatuses (plus some
+ * other random info).  For any buddy, or for any one of your accounts,
+ * or for any person you're chatting with, you may know various
+ * amounts of information.  This information is all contained in
+ * one GaimPresence.  If one of your buddies is away and idle,
+ * then the presence contains the GaimStatus for their awayness,
+ * and it contains their current idle time.  GaimPresences are
+ * never saved to disk.  The information they contain is only relevent
+ * for the current GaimSession.
