Why do we want this?

[Devid Antonio Filoni (d.filoni)]

It includes translations (should this be considered a sort of bugfix?) and from the changelog:
 * Error handlers might destroy the connection.
 * Don't popup unread email notifications if the option is disabled.
 * Fix contact removal bug.
 * Properly normalize everything.
 * Possible crash fix when disconnecting and there's a network error.
 * Fix http method over http proxy.
 * Fix add contact bug.
 * Fix memleaks.
 * Fix possible buffer overflow (CVE-2008-2927).
 * Fix initial login (new account).
 * etc...

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

OK. So far that all sounds like bug fixing. Are there any new features?

[Devid Antonio Filoni (d.filoni)]

Yes, there are 3 new features:
 * support for oim (read-only)
 * support for handwritten messages (read-only)
 * direct connection (maybe this was also there, but now it is enabled, only receiving)

[Cesare Tirabassi (norsetto)]

Self contained app, no open bugs, builds and installs fine, lots of bug fixes, fixes a CVE, uploader is maintaining in Debian and in close contact with upstream (https://launchpad.net/~msn-pecan/+members), its +1 from me.

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

Ack from me. Approved by motu-release.

[Luca Falavigna (dktrkranz)]

Several bugfixes, nice improvements on file transfer, ACK from me and FFe confirmed.
For additional points, I'm a msn-pecan user, so I could track regressions.
