[Adium-devl] MSNp15 (libpurple im.pidgin.pidgin) in Adium 1.3.x

[Stephen Holt]

The user should not (have to) care how Adium is communicating with the
server.  (S)He should only care that it does and it works.

I don't use MSN personally, but my take is as follows:   Whatever gives the
users the features they'd use with the least amount of complexity for us.
Use that one.  (Which sounds like the official pidgin msn prpl at this
point)

Whichever we use, bugs will happen.  But they will be fixed, and patches
will be sent upstream.
