The code is not horribly far from ready. I'm basically using it and
switching back to MSNP9 whenever I need to do something that blows up,
which is basically adding/removing/blocking/unblocking, and dealing with
the fact that changing screenname/buddy icon is broken.

I think we could do with an MSNP14 target in the tracker to report bugs
against so we get a list of release blockers rather than just having a
feeling that it's 'a bit broken', which isn't moving anything along at
all. Just a thought, since there's no way I'm going to be able to work
on any of the code myself before February.
