Pidgin and Finch: The Pimpin' Penguin IM Clients That're Good for the Soul
+version 2.6.0 (08/18/2009):
+ libpurple:
+ * Theme support in libpurple thanks to Justin Rodriguez's summer of code
+ project, with some minor additions and cleanups from Paul Aurich.
+ * Voice & Video framework in libpurple, thanks to Mike Ruprecht's summer
+ of code project in 2008.
+ * It should no longer be possible to end up with duplicates of buddies
+ in a group on the buddy list.
+ * Removed the unmaintained and unneeded toc protocol plugin.
+ * Fixed NTLM authentication on big-endian systems.
+ * Various memory cleanups when unloading libpurple. (Nick Hebner and
+ Stefan Becker)
+ * Report idle time 'From last message sent' should work properly.
+ * Better handling of corrupt certificates in the TLS Peers cache.
+ * More efficient buddy list and conversation search functions.
+ (Jan Kaluza and Aman Gupta)
+ * Install scalable versions of the main Pidgin icon, the protocol icons,
+ the dialog icons, and the Buddy List emblems.
+ * Build properly on Hurd. (Marc Dequ?nes)
+ * Various memory leaks fixed as reported by Josh Mueller.
+ * Properly handle an IRC buddy appearing in multiple groups.
+ * Escape HTML entities in usernames when written with the HTML logger.
+ * Do not display MySpace status changes as incoming IMs. (Mark Doliner and
+ Justin Williams)
+
+ DNS:
+ * DNS servers are re-read when DNS queries fail in case the system has
+ moved to a new network and the old servers are not accessible.
+ * DNS SRV records with equal priority are sorted with respect to their
+ weight as specified in RFC 2782. (Vijay Raghunathan)
+ * Don't do IPv6 address lookups if the computer does not have an IPv6
+ address configured.
+ * Fix a leak when the UI provides its own DNS resolving UI op.
+ (Aman Gupta)
+ * Don't fork a DNS resolver process to resolve IP addresses. (Aman Gupta)
+ * Internationalized Domain Names are supported when libpurple is compiled
+ against the GNU IDN library.
+
+ Environment Variables:
+ * GnuTLS logging (disabled by default) can be controlled through the
+ PURPLE_GNUTLS_DEBUG environment variable, which is an integer between
+ 0 and 9 (higher is more verbose). Higher values may reveal sensitive
+ information.
+ * PURPLE_VERBOSE_DEBUG environment variable. Currently, this is an "on" or
+ "off" variable. Set it to any value to turn it on and unset it to turn
+ it off. This will optionally be used to only show less useful debug
+ information on an as-needed basis.
+ * PURPLE_LEAKCHECK_HELP environment variable. Currently, this is an "on"
+ or "off" variable. Set it to any value to turn it on and unset it to
+ turn it off. This will be used to perform various actions that are
+ useful when running libpurple inside of Valgrind or similar programs.
+ Currently, it keeps plugins in memory, allowing Valgrind to perform
+ symbol resolution of leak traces at shutdown.
+
+ AIM and ICQ:
+ * Preliminary support for a new authentication scheme called
+ "clientLogin."
+ * Fixed a bug where your away message sometimes would not get set when
+ you first sign on.

+ * Support connection progress steps in Gadu-Gadu. (Krzysztof "kkszysiu"
+ Klinikowski)
+
+ MSN:

+ Stafford, Gal Topper, and Elliott Sales de Andrade)
+ * Add support for receiving audio clips on MSN. (Chris Stafford, Gal
+ Topper, and Elliott Sales de Andrade)

+ from you on MSN.
+ * Support sending an invite message to buddies when requesting authorization
+ from them on MSN.
+ * Timeout switchboard connections aggressively (60 seconds).
+
+ XMPP:
+ * Voice & Video support with Jingle (XEP-0166, 0167, 0176, & 0177), voice
+ support with GTalk and voice and video support with the GMail web

+ * Silently remove invalid XML 1.0 entities (e.g. ASCII control characters)
+ from sent messages.
+ * XHTML markup is only included in outgoing messages when the message
+ contains formatting.
+ * Show when the user was last logged in when doing "Get Info" on an offline
+ buddy, provided the server supports it.
+ * Support custom smileys in MUCs (only when all participants support the
+ "Bits of Binary" extension, and a maximum of 10 participants are in the
+ chat to avoid getting too many fetch requests).
+ * Fix an issue with Jabber (pre-XMPP) servers and the user's preference
+ to require SSL not being respected.
+ * Fix an issue where Cyrus SASL DIGEST MD5 authentication might fail if
+ the username, password, or realm (the JID domain) contain non-ASCII

+ 'msn/buddy at somedomain.com' is now supported. (Sulabh Mahajan)
+ * Further fixes for buddy pictures, aliases, etc.
+ * Yahoo! and Yahoo! JAPAN are now two separate protocol plugins that share
+ common protocol code. You can now have the same account on both
+ networks. Accounts should be seamlessly migrated to the new
+ arrangement.
+ * Ability to set personal details for an account and for buddies in the
+ buddylist.

+ dialog and various other dialogs now causes the cursor to move to

+ * Created a unified Buddy Pounce notification window for all pounces
+ where "Pop up a notification" is selected, which avoids having a
+ new dialog box every time a pounce is triggered. (Jorge Villase?or)

+ configuration has been moved from the Advanced tab to the new tab.
+ * Dragging a buddy onto a chat pops up a chat-invitation dialog.

+ especially for users of braille terminals, screen readers etc.
+ * Added a TinyURL plugin, which aids copying longer URLs.
