*nod* Before gaim-vv was dissolved, receiving had been implemented for  
Yahoo video, so that makes sense.  Could you give us the short version  
of j2k vs. non-j2k?  Is this an issue with the UI-to-library code or  
with the prpl code itself, primarily?  (in other words, does the use  
of j2k mean that the yahoo protocol code is more difficult to hook  
into a 'non-j2k' system?)

Also, why was it forked?  Just because of the gaim-vv issues, or  
something else?  If the former (and possibly if the latter), we should  
discuss with that libyahoo2 folks a merge back to libpurple of their  
code now that voice/video exists in libpurple.
