Comment(by salinasv):

 Thanks for a very constructive and ego-based comment on this issue so we
 can spend more pidgin-related time reading amazing developers (who doesn't
 submit patches) instead of actually coding.

 On the other hand, the fact that you don't know about this "new" protocol
 doesn't mean there is no such thing. And FYI, pidgin msn protocol support
 dates FAR before 2009 so, a protocol from 2009 (which is the year this
 MSNP18 have been released with the WindowsLive Messenger 2009 14.0) is
 kinda "new"...if you have read a little of history, few years ago, pidgin
 was using MSNP9, so switching to MSNP16 and then MSNP8 is a big step.

 Now, I don't care if you have "hacked" your version of WLM, we *know* we
 have this problem and there have been some work towards getting it fixed.
 As I said few comments ago (I don't really expect you have actually read
 it) this is done in our free time, and not always we have that.

 So, congratulations for being a hard-core hacker of MS products, I hope
 you can use your skills to help the community and send a patch to enable
 this P2Pv2 protocol.
