     6Version 1.2.7:
     7- Fixed problems with MSN Messenger authentication. ("Could not parse
     8  Passport server response")
     9- Fixed broken typing notifications when talking to GTalk contacts.
     10- Fixed an issue with non-anonymous Jabber chatrooms polluting the nick
     11  namespace, sometimes generating odd warning messages.
     12- Restored ability to start groupchats on ICQ.
     13- Added show_offline setting that will also show offline contacts in the
     14  control channel.
     15- OAuth support for Twitter: This means the module will keep working after
     16  June (this also changes "via API" under your tweets into "via BitlBee").

    7979                                                To send tweets yourself, send them to the twitter_(yourusername) contact, or just write in the groupchat channel if you enabled that option.

     82                                        <para>
     83                                                Since Twitter now requires OAuth authentication, you should not enter your Twitter password into BitlBee. Just type a bogus password. The first time you log in, BitlBee will start OAuth authentication. (See <emphasis>help set oauth</emphasis>.)

     892                        <para>
     893                                Since Twitter rejects messages longer than 140 characters, BitlBee can count message length and emit a warning instead of waiting for Twitter to reject it.

     895
     896                        <para>
     897                                You can change this limit here but this won't disable length checks on Twitter's side. You can also set it to 0 to disable the check in case you believe BitlBee doesn't count the characters correctly.

     951                                This enables OAuth authentication for Twitter accounts. From June 2010 this will be mandatory.

     953
     954                        <para>
     955                                With OAuth enabled, you shouldn't tell BitlBee your Twitter password. Just add your account with a bogus password and type <emphasis>account on</emphasis>. BitlBee will then give you a URL to authenticate with Twitter. If this succeeds, Twitter will return a PIN code which you can give back to BitlBee to finish the process.

     959                                The resulting access token will be saved permanently, so you have to do this only once.

     1105                                If enabled causes BitlBee to also show offline users in Channel. You may want to adjust the settings "voice_buddies", "halfop_buddies" and "op_buddies" according to your liking. A reasonable candidate is "voice_buddies=online", "halfop_buddies=false", "op_buddies=notaway".
