Comment(by MarkDoliner):

 Are people using unpatched Pidgin still not able to login to ICQ accounts?

 The documentation at http://dev.aol.com/aim/oscar/#FLAP states that the
 sequence number should be initialized to a random number.  Has anyone
 tried initializing it to a simple random number ("conn->seqnum_out =
 g_random_int();")?

 NightFox: Do you mean "only once for any FlapConnection"?

 eveel: I'm having trouble following your most recent patch... could you
 explain the generate_flap_sequence() function?

 Also, has anyone tried initializing conn->seqnum_out in
 flap_connection_new() where the FlapConnection is created?
