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...

...For code sharing or enhacing plugins' API with the basic Plus! functionalities (or both :))?

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...
