2008-02-09 - PyMSNt 0.11.3 will be my final release
As you've probably noticed there hasn't been much activity with
PyMSNt lately. There are several reasons for this. I've been busy with
my uni studies (now honours) as well as other work projects.
The main reason however is that just about all my friends are now
using Jabber/Gmail. This means I don't actually use the transport
myself anymore and so have little incentive to continue developing it
further.
Unfortunately this is unlikely to change in the near future.
I'd like to thank everybody for their support and the various offers
of financial contributions. Particularly Portugal Telecom/SAPO for
financing the development of avatars and file transfers.
