Hi,
This is an important maintenance release, everybody should update. Apparently Microsoft shut down the Nexus servers that were used for authentication, which meant msn-pecan stopped working completely. Fortunately I found a trick to circumvent the problem without requiring an update the protocol used; use Passport 3.0 authentication. Had I known the fix would have been so easy I would have tried earlier. Sorry for the long delay.
Plus:
- Fix authorization; Passport 3.0 instead of nexus
- Fix offline message reception
- Improve reconnection/disconnection detection
- Ignore reverse-list; the server returns wrong info
- Show correct alias in chat window
Enjoy

Hi,
It would be interesting pecan had all standards emoticons.
Bye.
That’s an issue with libpurple, but can be worked around:

May I know if telepathy-msn-pecan currently works?
@Teoh You mean on the Nokia N900 or outside? Outside it doesn’t really work (it’s different), but I’m thinking on putting the same from the Nokia N900 available so that it can be used in all sorts of distributions.
It doesn’t work for me on my N900. With a < character in my password, the password is not accepted. After I’ve changed my password to be without special characters, it says my account is in use even when I’ve signed out from everywhere.
