Hi Robert, Libyahoo2 handles the protocol layer. Libyahoo2 maintainer could not actively maintain the project since he joined Yahoo. Please check their mailing list http://libyahoo2.sourceforge.net/
I have personally moved to XMPP (jabber) protocol. Check out GNU Freetalk, it is a clone of Freehoo for jabber protocol. It works for Google Talk as well. Robert Dodier wrote:
Hello, I'm running Freehoo 3.5.3 on Linux. When I tried to run it for the first time, it reported a message from Yahoo, "You are using an older version of Yahoo! Messenger that is no longer supported" and then terminated. I guess the Yahoo Messenger protocol has been changed since Freehoo 3.5.3 was released. What would it take to update Freehoo? I am comfortable with programming various kinds of protocols so if the changes aren't too great, I might be able to do it (and I'd be glad to submit patches accordingly). Thanks for any info. Thanks also for making Freehoo available, it seems like a great project. best Robert Dodier PS. Logging in as [robert_dodier] in [Available] mode Yahoo System Message: Some versions of Yahoo!
