[Adium-devl] Parental Controls

[Ofri Wolfus]

Doesn't Colloquy have 10.5 support with properties and such?
I don't think anyone will have any problems with 10.5 code in a  
branch of an open source project as long as you don't actually  
document what the new calls do (i.e. expose the NDA'ed docs).  
Eventually, the purpose of the seeds is to allow developers to make  
their apps compatible with 10.5, and that's exactly what we'll be doing.
But this is only my interpretation.. I know about nothing on these  
stuff ;)
