Comment:

 I just want to add to the list some bugs this branch have and my guess
 about some of the bugs drunknmunky show up in a hope to get some patches.

  * For some reason official client when using MSNP16 is sending MSNObject
 with the Location empty and the filename encoded with Base64 in Friendly
 field. This caues to have not working anything that uses MSNObject: custom
 emoticons, displays picture, file transfers, etc.

  * Conversations: We need to manage swtichboard connection in a proper
 way. When we are logged in on different clients, all our instances join
 the switchboard, we receive one JOI requests from each active endpoint
 *and* the contact we are talking with. This means, actually we open a
 conversation with the contact and another one with ourselfs.

  * Add/remove accounts, I'm not sure but I think there will be no issue
 here.
