Yahoo! changed the protocol, purportedly to combat spam, and released updated (but still out-of-date - they're for 4.5!) ymessenger clients[1] just at the last moment, but didn't do anything to help the other IM clients, AFAIK. The gaim folks[2] picked up some info from the people who make Trillian and it's possible to log on and message, but there may be problems logging off - I haven't tried it. > I hope this will get committed soon. There needs to be much more testing, since 0.70 has some non-trivial changes[3]. > Keep up the good work Thanks, but what I did was the easy bit: hang out on #gaim on FreeNode and do a trivial version update to the port. Credit goes to the port maintainer.
