Add a chatroom once, then just /join it like any other room. Also automatic joining at login time is now possible. * Note that the old way of starting groupchats (/join #nickname) is now also deprecated, use "chat with" instead. * See "help chat" and "help chat add" for more information. - Rewrote bitlbee.conf parser to be less dumb. - Fixed compatibility (hopefully) with AIM mobile messages, certain kinds of Google Talk chatrooms. - Fixed numerous stability/reliability bugs over the last year. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs.
