[Adium-devl] Plugins - Handling different adium's versions

[Thibault Martin-Lagardette]

Argh, the categories. How couldn't have I thought about it. I do use  
it, already, afterall...

But well, after many considerations, and debate with friends and your  
answers, following the current version seems the simplest, and the  
wisest.

Thanks a lot :)
