Specify purple_request_field_set_required() for the Capcha input textbox. (This resolves an issue with Pidgin on Maemo where the MXit account cannot be activated) Also set the Birthdate, NickName, PIN1 & PIN2 as required fields when registering. It provides better UI-feedback to the user.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the
HOWTOs in the "Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
