-		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

-		       Version 2, June 1991

-

- Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

-                       59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA

- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies

- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

-

-			    Preamble

-

-  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your

-freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public

-License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free

-software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This

-General Public License applies to most of the Free Software

-Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to

-using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by

-the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to

-your programs, too.

-

-  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not

-price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you

-have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for

-this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it

-if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it

-in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

-

-  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid

-anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.

-These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you

-distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

-

-  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether

-gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that

-you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the

-source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their

-rights.

-

-  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and

-(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,

-distribute and/or modify the software.

-

-  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain

-that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free

-software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we

-want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so

-that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original

-authors' reputations.

-

-  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software

-patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free

-program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the

-program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any

-patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

-

-  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and

-modification follow.

-

-		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

-   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

-

-  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains

-a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed

-under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,

-refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"

-means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:

-that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,

-either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another

-language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in

-the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".

-

-Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not

-covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of

-running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program

-is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the

-Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).

-Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

-

-  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's

-source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you

-conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate

-copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the

-notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;

-and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License

-along with the Program.

-

-You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and

-you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

-

-  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion

-of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and

-distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1

-above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

-

-    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices

-    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

-

-    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in

-    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any

-    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third

-    parties under the terms of this License.

-

-    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively

-    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such

-    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an

-    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a

-    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide

-    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under

-    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this

-    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but

-    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on

-    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

-

-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If

-identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,

-and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in

-themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those

-sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you

-distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based

-on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of

-this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the

-entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

-

-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest

-your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to

-exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or

-collective works based on the Program.

-

-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program

-with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of

-a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under

-the scope of this License.

-

-  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,

-under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of

-Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

-

-    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable

-    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections

-    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

-

-    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three

-    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your

-    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete

-    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be

-    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium

-    customarily used for software interchange; or,

-

-    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer

-    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is

-    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you

-    received the program in object code or executable form with such

-    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

-

-The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for

-making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source

-code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any

-associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to

-control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a

-special exception, the source code distributed need not include

-anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary

-form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the

-operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component

-itself accompanies the executable.

-

-If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering

-access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent

-access to copy the source code from the same place counts as

-distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not

-compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

-

-  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program

-except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt

-otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is

-void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.

-However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under

-this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such

-parties remain in full compliance.

-

-  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not

-signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or

-distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are

-prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by

-modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the

-Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and

-all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying

-the Program or works based on it.

-

-  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the

-Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the

-original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to

-these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further

-restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.

-You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to

-this License.

-

-  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent

-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),

-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or

-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not

-excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot

-distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you

-may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent

-license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by

-all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then

-the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to

-refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

-

-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under

-any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to

-apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other

-circumstances.

-

-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any

-patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any

-such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the

-integrity of the free software distribution system, which is

-implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made

-generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed

-through that system in reliance on consistent application of that

-system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing

-to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot

-impose that choice.

-

-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to

-be a consequence of the rest of this License.

-

-  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in

-certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the

-original copyright holder who places the Program under this License

-may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding

-those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among

-countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates

-the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

-

-  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions

-of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will

-be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to

-address new problems or concerns.

-

-Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program

-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any

-later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions

-either of that version or of any later version published by the Free

-Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of

-this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software

-Foundation.

-

-  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free

-programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author

-to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free

-Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes

-make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals

-of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and

-of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

-

-			    NO WARRANTY

-

-  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY

-FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN

-OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES

-PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED

-OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

-MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS

-TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE

-PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,

-REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

-

-  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING

-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR

-REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,

-INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING

-OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED

-TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY

-YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER

-PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE

-POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

-

-		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

-

-	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

-

-  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest

-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it

-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

-

-  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest

-to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively

-convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least

-the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

-

-    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

-    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>

-

-    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify

-    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

-    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or

-    (at your option) any later version.

-

-    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,

-    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

-    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the

-    GNU General Public License for more details.

-

-    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License

-    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software

-    Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA

-

-

-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

-

-If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this

-when it starts in an interactive mode:

-

-    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author

-    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.

-    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it

-    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

-

-The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate

-parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may

-be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be

-mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.

-

-You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your

-school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if

-necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

-

-  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program

-  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

-

-  <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989

-  Ty Coon, President of Vice

-

-This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into

-proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may

-consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the

-library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General

-Public License instead of this License.

-================================================================================

-Useful plugins which can help you to work with the MSN protocol

-================================================================================

-

-Popup 1.0.1.9

-(http://miranda-im.org/download/details.php?action=viewfile&id=299)

-Popup Plus 2.0.3.8

-(http://miranda-im.org/download/details.php?action=viewfile&id=1170)

-----------------------

-All notifications in the MSN plugin are made using the Popup

-plugin. After the Popup plugin installation there will be some

-options available for tuning, you will find them in

-Options/Popups/MSN tab.

-

-Chat 0.2.0.2

-(http://miranda-im.org/download/details.php?action=viewfile&id=1309)

-----------------------

-This plugin allows you to support group chats with many MSN users. Without

-that plugin you can't leave a chat been being invited, so if you plan to

-use groupchats, this plugin is essential.

-

-SRMM (Unicode) 1.0.4.3

-(http://miranda-im.org/download/details.php?action=viewfile&id=1136)

-tabSRMM (Unicode) 0.9.9.95

-(http://hell.at.eu.org/forums)

-----------------------

-They both are true Unicode-aware message editors. Using them you can

-send/receive Unicode messages, so you won't be dependent on the

-codepages, encodings etc. They work only under NT4/Win2k/XP/2003.

-

-Unicode History Viewer

-(http://miranda-im.org/download/details.php?action=viewfile&id=1109)

-----------------------

-If you work under NT4/Win2k/XP/2003, and you can send/receive messages

-in Unicode, the standard history viewer will show question-marks when

-Unicode characters cannot be mapped to the current codepage. In this

-case you can use this plugin to have no problems at all.

-

-================================================================================

-Frequently asked questions.

-================================================================================

-

-Q1. I want to use the OpenSSL libraries, but plugin can't find or load

-them. Where can I find the valid DLLs for Win32?

-

-A1. http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

-Use the latest stable version.

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------

-

-Q2. I get strange errors with connection, proxies, file sending/

-receiving. How can I find the reason of the problem?

-

-A2. Some useful information is grouped in the networking-msn.txt.

-If it does not help, try to create a network log. Go to

-Options/Network and press a "Log Options" button (the only button

-in the upper-right corner). Very often this log helps users to

-find a hidden diagnostic messages, or simply understand what is

-happening concretely. If a problem persists, you can contact me,

-and upon request, send me (zipped!) a piece of this log.

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------

-

-Q3. My Miranda logged into the MSN network successfully, but I

-cannot send a message, and a contact's menu item 'Message' is blocked.

-

-A3. The problem is in the Conversation Style Messaging plugin.

-CSM plugin is incompatible with the MSN plugin because of the

-error in it. Disable it and/or delete, if you want to use the MSN

-protocol

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------

-

-Q4. I want to compile your sources, but got a lot of errors.

-

-A4. First, you should download new Miranda's SDK sources, and

-place the MSN plugin's sources into Protocol\MSN subdirectory

-(accordingly to the Miranda's directory tree). Notice that MSN is

-not a plugin anymore, it's stored among another protocols. Look at

-http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/miranda-icq to

-view the complete directory structure.

-

-Then download the Popup plugin, and unzip header file m_popup.h

-to the SDK\headers_c directory. Then you should be able to compile

-MSN plugin without problems.

-

-Installation of Microsoft Platform SDK is not required to

-compile MSN plugin sources

-

-----------------------------------------------------------------

-

-Q5. When I receive an authorization request, my own nickname is

-shown in the contact list. Is it a bug?

-

-A5. Yes, it is, but it cannot be solved now. Miranda uses UINs

-to identify a contact, but because MSN protocol have no UINs,

-your own nickname (as a default one) is shown.

-
