Summary     : IRC to other chat networks gateway

networks like ICQ, MSN, Jabber or Yahoo!

Update Information:

As per BitlBee upstream, the following fixes and changes were done for BitlBee
1.2.1:    - Fixed proxy support.  - Fixed stalling issues while connecting to
Jabber when using the OpenSSL module.  - Fixed problem with GLib and ForkDaemon
where processes didn't die when the client disconnects.  - Fixed handling of
"set charset none". (Which pretty much breaks the account completely in 1.2.)  -
You can now automatically identify yourself to BitlBee by setting a server
password in your IRC client.  - Compatible with all crazy kinds of line endings
that clients can send.  - Changed root nicknames are now saved.  - Added
ClientInterface setting to bind() outgoing connections to a specific network
interface.  - Support for receiving Jabber chatroom invitations.  - Relaxed port
restriction of the Jabber module: added ports 80 and 443.  - Preserving case in
Jabber resources of buddies, since these should officially be treated as case
sensitive.  - Fully stripping spaces from AIM screennames, this didn't happen
completely which severly breaks the IRC protocol.  - Fixed GLib <2.6
compatibility issue.  - Misc. memory leak/crash fixes.
