version 2.5.5 (03/01/2009):
	libpurple:
	* Fix a crash when removing an account with an unknown protocol id.
	* Beta support for SSL connections for AIM and ICQ accounts.  To
	  enable, check the "Use SSL" option from the Advanced tab when
	  editing your AIM or ICQ account. (Paul Aurich)
	* Fix a memory leak in SILC. (Luke Petre)
	* Fix some string handling in the SIMPLE prpl, which fixes some buddy name
	  handling and other issues. (Paul Aurich, Marcus Sundberg)
	* Implement support for resolving DNS via the SOCKS4 proxy (SOCKS4a).

	ICQ:
	* Fix retrieval of status messages from users of ICQ 6.x, Miranda, and
	  other libpurple clients. (Daniel Ljungborg)
	* Change client ID to match ICQ Basic 14.34.3096.  This fixes publishing
	  of buddy icons and available messages.
	* Properly publish status messages for statuses other than Available.
	  ICQ 6.x users can now see these status messages. (Daniel Ljungborg)
	* Fix receipt of messages from the mobile client Slick. (David Jedelsky)

	MSN:
	* Fix transfer of buddy icons, custom smileys, and files from the
	  latest Windows Live Messenger 9 official client. (Thomas
	  Gibson-Robinson)
	* Large (multi-part) messages are now correctly re-combined.
	* Federated/Yahoo! buddies should now stop creating sync issues at
	  every signin.  You may need to remove duplicates in the Address
	  Book.  See the FAQ for more information.  Thanks to Jason Lingohr
	  for lots of debugging and testing.
	* Messages from Yahoo! buddies are no longer silently dropped.
	* We now save and use the CacheKey for ABCH SOAP requests.
	* Don't try to parse Personal Status Messages or Current Media if they
	  don't exist.
	* Convert from ISO-8859-1 encoding to UTF-8 when no charset is specified
	  on incoming messages.  This should fix some issues with messages from
	  older clients.
	* Force sending the font "Segoe UI" if outgoing formatting doesn't specify
	  a font already.
	* Queue callbacks when token updates are in progress to prevent two token
	  update attempts from trampling each other.
	* Fixed a crash on Windows when removing a buddy's alias.
	* Update the Address Book when buddies' friendly names change.  This
	  prevents seeing an outdated alias or not seeing an alias at all for
	  buddies who are offline when you sign in.
	* Update tokens for FindMembership and ABFindAll SOAP requests.
	* We no longer try to send empty messages.  This could happen when a
	  message contained only formatting and that formatting was not supported
	  on MSN.
	* Buddies on both the Allow and Block list are now automatically
	  removed from the Allow list.  Users with this problem will now no
	  longer receive an ADL 241 error.  The problematic buddy should now
	  appear on the buddy list and can be removed or unblocked as desired.

	XMPP:
	* Resources using __HOSTNAME__ substitution will now grab only the short
	  hostname instead of the FQDN on systems which put the FQDN in the
	  hostname. (Matěj Cepl)
	* No longer send a 'to' attribute on an outgoing stanza when we haven't
	  received one.  This fixes a registration bug as described in ticket
	  #6635.

	Pidgin:
	* Tooltip windows now appear below the mouse cursor. (Kosta Arvanitis)
	* Tooltip windows now disappear on keypress events. (Kosta Arvanitis)
	* Tooltip windows no longer linger when scrolling the buddy list. (Kosta
	  Arvanitis)

	Finch:
	* Allow rebinding keys to change the focused widget (details in the
	  man-page, look for GntBox::binding)
