| 512 | | * '''General''' |
| 513 | | * Build fixes on !OpenSolaris. (Brian Lu) |

| 532 | | |
| 533 | | * '''MXit''' |
| 534 | | * Replace the MXit-specific mood management with the new standard Moods API. |
| 535 | | * Add the standard MXit emoticons. |
| 536 | | * Improve the handling of users being kicked from MultiMX rooms. |
| 537 | | * MXit doesn't allow you to see your buddy's Email Address or Title, so remove those two fields from the "Buddy Information" page. |
| 538 | | * Show buddy's Registration Country in their profile. |
| 539 | | * Increment protocol version to v6.0 |
| 540 | | * If an invite you sent was rejected with a reason, display that message in the buddy tooltip. |

| 550 | | [http://developer.pidgin.im/query?status=closed&milestone=2.7.0 View all closed tickets for this release.] |
| 551 | | * '''General''' |
| 552 | | * Changed GTK+ minimum version requirement to 2.10.0. |
| 553 | | * Changed GLib minimum version requirement to 2.12.0. |
| 554 | | * Using the --disable-nls argument to configure now works properly. You will no longer be forced to have intltool to configure and build. |
| 555 | | * Fix two related crashes in the GnuTLS and NSS plugins when they suffer internal errors immediately upon attempting to establish an SSL connection. |
| 556 | | * Fix NSS to work when reinitialized after being used. (Thanks to Ludovico Cavedon for the testcase) |
| 557 | | * Added support for PURPLE_GNUTLS_PRIORITIES environment variable. This can be used to specify GnuTLS priorities on a per-host basis. The format is "host=priority;host2=priority;...". The default priority can be overridden by using "*" as the host. See the GnuTLS manual for documentation on the format of the priority strings. |
| 558 | | * Fix autoconf detection of Python. (Brad Smith) |
| 559 | | * Fix a crash when a Windows proxy (from IE) does not have a port. (Marten Klencke) |

| 568 | | * The Recent Log Activity sort method for the Buddy List now distinguishes between no activity and a small amount of activity in the distant past. (Greg !McNew) |
| 569 | | * Added a menu set mood globally for all mood-supporting accounts (currently XMPP and ICQ). |
| 570 | | * Default binding of Ctrl+Shift+v to 'Paste as Plain Text' in conversation windows. This can be changed in .gtkrc-2.0. For example, Ctrl+v can be bound to 'Paste as Plain Text' by default. |
| 571 | | * Plugins can now handle markup in buddy names by attaching to the "drawing-buddy" signal. (Daniele Ricci, Andrea Piccinelli) |
| 572 | | * Be more accommodating when scaling down large images for use as buddy icons. |
| 573 | | * The 'Message Timestamp Formats' plugin allows changing the timestamp format from the timestamps' context menu in conversation log. |
| 574 | | * The 'Message Timestamp Formats' plugin allows forcing 12-hour timestamps. (Jonathan Maltz) |

| 577 | | |

| 580 | | |

| 582 | | * Updated our bundled libgadu to 1.9.0-rc2 (many thanks to Krzysztof Klinikowski for the work and testing put in here!) |
| 583 | | * Minimum requirement for external libgadu is now also 1.9.0-rc2. |
| 584 | | * '''AIM and ICQ''' |
| 585 | | * X-Status (Custom ICQ status icon) support. Since most of the icons available reflect moods, this is labeled "Set Mood" on the Accounts->ICQ Account menu. (Andrew Ivanov, Tomáš Kebert, Yuriy Yevgrafov, and trac users bob007, salieff, and nops) |
| 586 | | * Allow setting and displaying icons between 1x1 and 100x100 pixels for ICQ. Previously only icons between 48x48 and 52x64 were allowed. |
| 587 | | * When using the clientLogin authentication method, prompt for a password on reconnect when "Remember Password" is not checked and authentication fails due to an incorrect password. (This is the same behavior as the legacy authentication method) |
| 588 | | * Support sending and receiving HTML-formatted messages for ICQ. |
| 589 | | * Use the proper URL for "View web profile" link for ICQ buddies. (Alexander Nartov) |

| 596 | | |
| 597 | | * '''XMPP''' |
| 598 | | * Direct messages to a specific resource only upon receipt of a message with content (as opposed to a typing notification, etc). (Thanks to rjoly for testing) |
| 599 | | * Present a better error message when authentication fails while trying to connect to Facebook. (David Reiss, Facebook) |
| 600 | | * When sending data using in-band-bytestreams, interpret the block-size attribute as the size of the BASE64-encoded representation of the data. |
| 601 | | * Validate the hash on incoming BoB data objects (for custom smileys etc.), cache based per JID when the CID is not a valid hash (as specified by the BoB XEP). |
| 602 | | * Send whitespace keepalives if we haven't sent data in a while (2 minutes). This fixes an issue with Openfire disconnecting a libpurple-baesd client that has just been quiet for about 6 minutes. |
| 603 | | * Only support Google Talk's JID Domain Discovery extension (allowing a user to log in with "@gmail.com" or "@googlemail.com" interchangeably) for those two domains. This change was made due to interoperability issues with some BOSH Connection Managers and namespaced attributes. |
| 604 | | |
| 605 | | * '''Yahoo/Yahoo JAPAN''' |
| 606 | | * Attempt to better handle transparent proxies interfering with HTTP-based login. |

| 614 | | * New action 'history-search', with default binding ctrl+r, to search the entered string in the input history. |
| 615 | | |
| 616 | | * '''Windows-Specific Changes''' |
| 617 | | * Updated GTK+ to 2.16.6 |
| 618 | | * Private GTK+ Runtime now used (GTK+ Installer no longer supported) |
| 619 | | * Minimum required GTK+ version increased to 2.14.7 |
| 620 | | * Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows ME (Millennium Edition), and Windows NT 4.0 no longer supported due to GTK+ requirements changes. |
| 621 | | * Crash Report files (pidgin.RPT) are now generated in the ~/.purple directory instead of the installation directory. |
| 622 | | * NSS SSL Library upgraded to 3.12.5 (thanks to Berke Viktor) |
| 623 | | * !GtkSpell upgraded to 2.0.16, changing the spellchecking backend to enchant. This means that myspell and hunspell (!OpenOffice) dictionaries can be used (previous versions' aspell dictionaries will not work). |
