[ANN] msn-pecan 0.0.18 released

[Felipe Contreras]

Hi,

This release has many features, mainly thanks to Devid Antonio Filoni,
but other people also helped (specially Thiago Silva).

Bugfixes:
 * Personal status messages now work properly (can be enabled and disabled)
 * Fix for WLM 2009 user displays (Thomas Gibson-Robinson)

Features:
 * Voice clip support (Devid Filoni for the port, original patch from
Chris Stafford, and Youness Alaoui for libsiren)
 * P4-context support for groups.im (Thiago Silva and Devid Filoni)
 * New option to hide Plus! tags (Devid Filoni)
 * Support for Plus! sounds (Devid Filoni and Thiago Silva).

Also, some cleanups and reorganization heading towards a standalone library.

Something interesting happened on January 12; for some reason the MSN
servers changed something that prevented many clients (>MSNP13) from
working, while msn-pecan kept working just fine. That day the number
of downloads increased dramatically (10,000 a day), but unfortunately
it lasted only a day :( Hopefully some people are still using it and
waiting for this new release.

Also now it's packaged in Fedora:

New translations: Turkish, Portuguese (standard and Brazil) and Arabic.
