More documentation fixes: Cleaned up dead links, removed more outdated
information (like the "set charset" default, which is UTF-8 for ages
already).

    58 Since version 0.8x, BitlBee supports groupchats on the MSN and Yahoo! networks. This text will try to explain you how they work.

    75 If you want to start a groupchat with the person <emphasis>jim_msn</emphasis> in it, just join the channel <emphasis>#jim_msn</emphasis>. BitlBee will refuse to join you to the channel with that name, but it will create a new virtual channel with root, you and jim_msn in it.
     71If you want to start a groupchat with the person <emphasis>lisa_msn</emphasis> in it, just join the channel <emphasis>#lisa_msn</emphasis>. BitlBee will refuse to join you to the channel with that name, but it will create a new virtual channel with root, you and lisa_msn in it.

    8379Some protocols (like Jabber) also support named groupchats. BitlBee now supports these too. You can use the <emphasis>join_chat</emphasis> command to join them. See <emphasis>help join_chat</emphasis> for more information.

    96 Obviously the (numbered) channel names don't make a lot of sense. Problem is that groupchats usually don't have names at all in the IM-world, while IRC insists on a name. So BitlBee just generates something random, just don't pay attention to it. :-)

    100 Please also note that BitlBee doesn't support groupchats for all protocols yet. BitlBee will tell you so. Support for other protocols will hopefully come later.

    130 You can also add more information to your away message. Setting it to "Busy - Fixing BitlBee bugs" will set your IM-away-states to Busy, but your away message will be more descriptive for people on IRC. Protocols like Yahoo! and Jabber will also show this complete away message to your buddies.
