That is very cool indeed, as is (of course) all the work being done by various
parties to actually use Verse.

I just "ported" the Purple codebase; it involved changing one line, the one
that calls verse_send_connect(). That is of course an overly positive view
however, I know there is at least one callback (connect_accept) that needs
to be updated as well. Sometimes I wish we had explicit types for all of
those, but it'd be rather unwieldy...

I guess I should update the CVS repository as well, but I'm waiting for yet
another release from Eskil.

Anyway, just happy to see the action, looking forward to seeing it live on
the Blender Conference.
