0.8.2         - building documentation is now optional
              - new settings: test_join and show_moods
              - '~' in skyped.conf is now expanded to the user's home directory
	      - groupchat channel names are now persistent (requires
	        BitlBee-1.2.6)
0.8.1         - support for BitlBee 1.2.5
              - support for Skype 2.1.0.81 and Skype4Py 1.0.32.0
              - the plugin part now supports FreeBSD
              - fix for edited messages, the prefix can now be configured
0.8.0         - fix build on x86_64 (-fPIC usage)
              - debug messages now have a timestamp
              - more work on having the default config under ~/.skyped
              - added a manual page for skyped
0.7.2         - add --log option to skyped to allow logging while it the
                daemon is in the background.
              - prefer config files from ~/.skyped over /etc/skyped
              - handle the case when LANG and LC_ALL env vars are empty
0.7.1         - mostly internal changes, the monster read callback is
                now replaced by tiny parser functions
0.7.0         - made 'make config' more portable
              - add 'skypeconsole' buddy for debugging purposes
              - support autojoin for bookmarked groupchats
              - skyped: make hardwired '/dev/null' portable and fix
                Python-2.6 warnings
0.6.3         - various osx-specific improvements (see the new screenshot!)
              - added python-gnutls install instructions
              - bitlbee.pc is now searched under
                /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig by default to help LFS monkeys ;)
0.6.2         - bugfix: make install required the plugin even in case
                its build was disabled
0.6.1         - added keepalive traffic to avoid disconnects in bitlbee
                when there is no traffic for a long time
              - now the plugin or skyped is automatically disabled if
		the dependencies are not available; useful in case the
		plugin is to be installed on a public server, or the
		skyped is to be used with a public server only
0.6.0         - works with BitlBee 1.2.1
0.5.1         - configure now automatically detects the right prefix to
                match witl BitlBee's one
              - minor documentation improvements (public chats, bug
                reporting address)
0.5.0         - skyped now uses gnutls if possible, which seem to be
                more stable, compared to openssl.
              - skyped now tries to handle all read/write errors from/to
                clients, and always just warn about failures, never exit.
              - installation for Debian users should be more simple
              - improved documentation
              - this .0 release should be quite stable, only about 100
                lines of new code
0.4.2         - skyped should be now more responsive
              - new skypeout_offline setting for hiding/showing SkypeOut

              - tested with BitlBee 1.2 and Skype 2.0.0.63
              - avoid ${prefix} (by autoconf) in the config file as we
                don't handle such a variable
              - now you can call echo123 (patch by Riskó Gergely)
0.4.0         - support for starting, accepting and rejecting calls
              - also updated documentation (the key is the account set
                skype/call command)

	        new code

0.3.1         - beautify output when skyped is interrupted using ^C
              - 'nick skype foo' now really sets display name, not the mood
                text
              - documentation fixups
              - this version should be again as stable as 0.2.6 was
0.3.0         - authentication support in skyped via ssl
              - ~200 lines of new code, so be careful :)
	      - upgraders: please read the documentation about how to set up
	        your config the ssl certificate, this was no necessary till now
0.2.6         - the server setting has a default value, 'localhost' so in most
		cases you no longer have to set it explicitly
	      - support for receiving emoted messages, ie. when the user types
	        '/me foo'
	      - support for setting the display name (nick 0 "foo bar") - it
	        sets the mood text
