Re: (clug-talk) GAIM troubles

[Nathanael Noblet]

Recompiling gaim will not be solving your problem I suspect. The 
problem is that MS wants $$ to license programs that use their 
protocol. Since gaim doesn't have the funds to pay a per copy payment 
to MS... this is likely not to happen. You unfortunately are left 
without messenger, regardless of what software you use. They may come 
with a way around this... I am currently working on getting MSN 
Messenger to work with Wine... Although I have OS X so have messenger 
still working, I can imagine that this will be a bad thing for linux 
only users.
