-*- Outline -*-

* 0.9.6 Moved to git

* 0.9.2 to 0.9.3 (First EMchat release)

* 0.9.1

This was the last Eicq release.  From this point on it is EMchat.
Oh, and sorry for not updating this file in the last couple of
versions. 

* 0.8 to 0.9

* 0.7 to 0.8

- Removed all the old stagnating v5 protocol code. (Me)
- GUI enhancements (Me)
	Removed some unnecessary scrollbars
	Optionally use the gutter tabs instead of the status buffer
	Display X-Face and Colour Face images in buddy buffer
- Fix bug with Eicq trying to play undefined sounds. (Me)
- Better handling of switching between log/buddy buffers (Me).
- Add an "oops" function. (Me)
	This is for those times when you send a msg to the wrong
	person, `eicq-oops', sends the msg to the right person and an
	apology/explanation to the wrong person.
- Eliza meets Eicq. (Me)
	As far as we are aware, Eicq is the only ICQ client in the
	world that allows your contacts to psycho-analyze themselves.
- Activity indicatory for XWEM. (Me)
	Displays a small glyph in the xwem-minibuffer.  The glyph
	changes when you have new incoming messages.
- Fix bug that was causing `current-buffer' to be screwed after an
  auto-relogin. (Me)
- Support Russian language out of the box. (Evgeny Zajcev)
- Key binding fix. (Evgeny Zajcev)
- BBDB fix. (Evgeny Zajcev, Me)

* 0.6 to 0.7

- Protocol code fixes/additions (Evgeny Zajcev, Me)
	Way too many changes to list here.  Suffice to say that in
	this release, Eicq went from non-working bitrot to usable and
	functioning ICQ client! :-)  See the README file for a summary
	of the currently working features.
- Log buffer enhancements (aka Gnus-style emphasis) (Me)
	Underline, bold, italic text.  Hyperlinked URL's, email
	addresses and Unix manual page names.
- Auto-response messages improvements (Me)
	Auto-responses are only sent once per contact per period of
	not being in the "online" status.  Can also set some contacts
	to never receive these auto-responses.
- Allow other ICQ user to request "online notifications" (Me)
	This works by the other user sending you a message with the
	magic string ",,notify-me" in the message, and when you next
	change status to "online", anyone who has sent you the magic
	string gets sent a message saying you're back online.
- Global key prefix (default is M-`) customisable (Me)
	Also most of the previously globally bound keys have been
	removed from the global map.  Now all that is in the global
	map is what is really needed, things like eicq-login and
	eicq-show-window. 
- Contact names appear in buddy buffer in the same order as world (ME)
- Contact histories (Alexey Mikhailov)
	Adds mICQ-style history for each contact.  Turn it on with:
		(setq eicq-history-enabled-flag t)
- Eicq-track (Alexey Mikhailov)
	ERC/Riece style modeline indicator.
- Handle "invisible" status correctly (Me)
	This is something that Eicq has never done right, up until
	now.  It is possible to be invisible _and_ online or away or
	na etc.
- Make Eicq usable on a TTY/console (Me)
	Who says you need a GUI to chat on ICQ? :-)

* 0.5.9 to 0.6

- Switch from n.n.n to n.n version numbers.
	Actually, these n.n version numbers are only seen on the
	tarball filenames etc.  The version string you see from 
	M-x eicq-version looks like:

	Eicq: steve@eicq.org--2005/eicq--main--0.6--patch-15

- Development was moved away from SF.net and is now done all
	"in-house" at eicq.org.
- Switched to GNU/Arch version control instead of CVS.
- Many additions/fixes to protocol code (Evgeny Zajcev, Me)
- Make it easy for people to donate to the project (Me)
	M-x eicq-donate


* 0.5.0 to 0.5.9

- Switched to BSD license.

* 0.2.17 to 0.5.0

- Major cleanup and restructuring (Me)
	Lots and lots of stuff has changed, see the ChangeLog for all
	the gory details.  Oh, it would be a REALLY GOOD IDEA if you
	remove any previous version of Eicq BEFORE you install this
	one.  Yes, it's changed THAT much.

	We haven't achieved ICQv8 protocol compliance yet, but
	hopefully, we'll be at least partially there with this
	release. 

* 0.2.16 to 0.2.17

- Auto-reconnect (Me)
	Don't attempt to reconnect if a password isn't set or if
	delete-offline-messages is set to 'ask.
- Buddy buffer reset to pre-logged-in-state on logout. (Me)
- eicq-connect/disconnect cleanup (Erik Arneson, Me)
- New function 'eicq-search-by-uin' (Me)
	Search for a user by their ICQ number.
- New function 'eicq-add-user' (Me)
	Dynamically add a new contact to you buddy list.
- Eicq is now "web-aware" capable. (Me)
- EicqWharf cleanup (Erik Arneson)
	Don't try to do anything unless the Wharf frame has been
	created. 


* 0.2.15 to 0.2.16

- Bug report code cleanup/enhancement. (Me)
- Use 'locate-data-directory' to find data files. (Me)

	Create a tiny frame suitable for docking.  Keeps track of
	number of new messages.

	To be used when you have idled away as opposed to explicitly
	marking yourself away (not yet working).
- Cleaner layout for query output. (Me)
- Remove background colour settings. (Me)
- Auto-reconnect if kicked off ICQ server. (Me)
- Don't log outgoing auto-response messages. (Me)

	Add cygwin related comments to Makefile, INSTALL,
	eicq-user-install.sh

- Added type boolean to all the 'on/off' defcustoms.
- Removed some obsolete v2 stuff.
- Renamed udp2tcp.cc to icq2tcp.cc

	appropriate directory.
