Okay, I got behind a little (ehhh... actually some more than that). To cut a 
long story short: I did not read the ML for some time. I recently installed 
aMSN 0.96 on my brand-new MacBook, had a webcam issue, updated to svn version 
to see it that got fixed already, and then was surprised to see that new 
contactlist. GOOD WORK GUYS!!!!

In the new CL however, I saw the old cluttered aMSN 0.95 balloon is back. 
Digging back in the ML I found a question about is in this thread.

I once coded the italic/bold things into the balloon. But it was quite a hack. 
Just look at the old CL code to see what kind of think I've been doing there. 
To explain it short: Instead of having the balloon_message in 1 string, I 
made it a list of strings, and then I added two arguments to the balloon 
proc, one being a list specifying the fonts for the corresponding items in 
the message list, the other being a flag that tells the proc to read the 
message as a list and apply fonts.

So, that is one way you can fix up the balloon again, the other (probably 
better) one is to redo the balloon stuff in a better way, instead of using my 
backward-compatible hack (you are breaking backward compatibility for some 
things anyway, I guess).

Please have a look at aMSN 0.96 for what info is in the balloon too. Some of 
the unimportant info that we kicked out of it, got back in too.

Ps: webcam issue seems not to be fixed, I'll send a separate mail about that.
