ICQ broken since protocol update on 2018-12-28 #53

Open GrandAdmiralThrawn opened 5 years ago

Since the ICQ protocol update on the 28th December 2018, licq can no longer log into the ICQ servers. This requires an updated ICQ protocol plugin!

I hope somebody is willing to fix this!

Thanks.

Hi, Thanks for your report. I'm sorry to inform you that Licq development has stopped so this issue will most likely not be dealt with.

I thought that'd be the case... Too bad, because it's still my preferred client.

It wouldn't have to be the original developers doing it either, I'd welcome an implementation of the new WIM protocol in licq, no matter where it comes from. ;)

I don't think I can do this by myself unfortunately... small fixes like the 16-character passwords, that was easy to do, but a whole protocol implementation... uh.
