-----------------------+--------------------------------
Bitlbee 3.2.1 is out, with a range of improvements over 3.0.5. From
upstream:
Version 3.0.6:
- Updated MSN module to speak MSNP18:
* Biggest change is that this brings MPOP support (you can sign in to
one account from multiple locations).
* Restored support for *sending* offline messages.
* Some support for federated (i.e. Yahoo!) contacts. (Only messages
might work, you won't see them online.)
- Twitter:
* Work-around for stalls that are still happening sometimes.
* Added "favourite" command.
* "show_ids" enabled by default.
- Handle see-other-host Jabber messages which should fix support for MSN-
XMPP.
- Misc. fixes and improvements.
Version 3.2:
- By far the most important change, a thorough update to the Twitter
module:
* Now using Twitter API 1.1,
* which means it's now using JSON instead of XML,
* which means access to the streaming API (Twitter only, other Twitter
API services don't seem to have it). No more 60-second polls, #twitter
looks even more like real IRC now!
* Also, the streaming API means nice things like receiving DMs.
* show_ids, already enabled by default for a while, now uses hexa-
decimal numbers, which means a 256-entry backlog instead of just 100.
* Added a mode=strict setting which requires everything to be a command.
The "post" command should then be used to post a Tweet.
- Jabber module bugfix that fixes connection issues with at least Google
Talk but reportedly some other servers (OpenFire?) as well.
- SSL modules improved a little bit. GnuTLS module now supports SNI and
session caching. Shouldn't change much, but hopefully reduces latency and
bandwidth usage a little bit.
- A bunch of other fixes/improvements here and there.
Version 3.2.1:
- Most important change: http_client updated to use HTTP/1.1, now required
by Twitter.
- fill_by setting can now be used to fill a channel contacts *not* in a
certain group/on a certain account/etc. See "help set fill_by"
- Added utf8_nicks setting which lets you use non-ASCII nicknames for your
contacts. Might not work with all IRC clients, use at your own risk!
- Lots of bugfixes.
