https://github.com/bitlbee/bitlbee/commits/master
+Version 3.5:
+
+- ui:
+ * "chat list": shows a list of existing server-side chatrooms. With some
+ protocols, this is often the only way to add new channels.
+ See 'help chat list' for details. (jgeboski)
+ * "plugins": lists the installed plugins and their versions (jgeboski)
+ * Add 'nick_lowercase' and 'nick_underscores' settings.
+ * "handle_unknown" can be set per-account, not just globally
+
+- jabber:
+ * Add "always_use_nicks" channel setting, for non-anonymous MUCs (trac #415)
+ See 'help set always_use_nicks' for possible side effects.
+ * Properly handle rejected file transfers
+ * Don't send parts in a chat if someone is still connected from other devices
+ * hipchat: support personal oauth tokens (manually generated ones)
+
+- twitter:
+ * Hide muted tweets / no-retweets, add mute/unmute commands (Flexo)
+ * Show full version of extended tweets (with slightly more than 140 chars)
+
+- purple:
+ * Support setting chat room topics (EionRobb)
+ * Support for extra groupchat settings. Shows an error if any required
+ ones are missing. Look for purple_ prefixed settings in "chan #... set"
+ * SIPE: persistent chats can be joined now, thanks to the "chat list" command
+ and the above ("purple_uri" channel setting)
+ * Fix a file transfer crash bug (Mainly affected telegram)
+ * Honor protocol flag to not require a password (used in hangouts, telegram)
+ * Set the contacts' nicks to the %full_name for a few whitelisted protocols
+ (hangouts, funyahoo, icq, line)
+ * LINE: added a hack to save its auth token, to avoid re-auth every time
+ * Show self-messages in groupchat backlogs (before join)
+
+- yahoo:
+ * Removed because they killed their old protocol on a two month notice.
+ Use EionRobb's funyahoo purple plugin, or better yet, don't use yahoo.
+
+- Stuff for enterprise deployments (all done by Sevas)
+ * Locked down accounts, useful when pregenerating user config files. An
+ account that is marked with the locked="true" attribute can't be removed
+ and its username/password can't be changed.
+ * Locked down settings. Same as above, but for individual account settings.
+ * AllowAccountAdd setting in bitlbee.conf, to disable adding new accounts.
+ * PAM and LDAP authentication backends (not compiled by default)
+
+- For packagers:
+ * Enabled debug symbols in non-debug builds, disabled stripping by default.
+ This is closer to the default behavior of autotools, and --debug=1 is mostly
+ to set the DEBUG macro and disable optimization.
+
+- For plugin devs:
+ * Plugins should now include an "init_plugin_info" function which will be used
+ for ABI version checking in the future. It's optional for now, but will be
+ enforced later. See the commit log of d28fe1c for details. (jgeboski)
