Name        : bitlbee
Product     : Fedora 12
Version     : 1.2.6a
Release     : 3.fc12
URL         : http://www.bitlbee.org/
Summary     : IRC to other chat networks gateway
Description :
Bitlbee is an IRC to other chat networks gateway. Bitlbee can be used as
an IRC server which forwards everything you say to people on other chat
networks like ICQ/AIM, MSN, XMPP/Jabber (including Google Talk), Yahoo or
Twitter!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

- Fixed a typo that renders the Twitter groupchat mode unusable. A last- minute
change that came a few minutes late.  - Native (very basic) support for Twitter,
implemented by Geert Mulders. Currently supported are posting tweets, reading
the ones of people you follow, and sending (not yet receiving!) direct messages.
- Fixed format of status messages in /WHOIS to improve IRC client compatibility.
- Show timestamps of offline messages/channel backlogs.  - Allow saving MSN
display names locally since sometimes this stuff breaks server-side. (Use the
local_display_name per-account setting.)  - Suppress empty "Headline:" messages
for certain new XMPP broadcast messages.  - Better handling of XMPP contacts
with multiple resources on-line. Default behaviour now is to write to wherever
the last message came from, or to the bare JID (usually becomes a broadcast) if
there wasn't any recent msg.  - Added a switchboard_keepalives setting which
should solve some issues with talking to offline MSN contacts. (Although full
support for offline messages is not ready yet!)  - The usual misc. bug fixes.
