Reverted changes from ef7ac46f90a801547f7dfc4295927a956f90e869 to
7620a822ab493396a6f651113857f1c5821e3ec1 to revert start of the hinting
changes. This was necessary to get around some merges and propagates, as
disapprove can't be used on revisions with more than one parent.

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 e-mail 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! Patches should be posted as Trac tickets at: http://developer.pidgin.im
