RE: Let's talk again about code sharing

Plus! probably mostly implements hooking for getting and sending messages through msn/windows messenger, it doesn't implement any of the protocol itself, which is probably what you need the most for your bot...
There are some open source msn messenger-clones you can take a look at, that are more likely to suit our needs, namely Gaim and Miranda.
Also you can find some documentation about the protocol here: MSN Messenger Protocol.

yep, Plus doesn't use the messenger protocol directly but the APIs of messenger to send/receive messages and hooking to display menus.

Btw, amsn is also a messenger clone for Linux/Windows and you can get its source code.

I'm for it...if it results in a more fun experience for all MSN Messenger users it's worth it...

Both Plugins and in the fact that potentially Plus! could be the first of many MSN Messenger enhancing software...although Patchou can't be topped...
