SwitchboardManager

A week ago, ole andrĂ© started some very serious msnp2p reverse engineering. msnp2p is what MSN uses to transfer all sort of data, like display pictures, custom smiley or files… that msnp2p crack, may use the switchboard, which is a relay server used for sending messages between you and the peers your are talking to, the problem with the switchboards, is that they are very complex to handle : timeouts, peers may leave and you need to re invite them, peers may go offline… The complexity of the situation led me to design a new object named SwitchboardManager, that I just pushed yesterday into pymsn.devel (http://projects.collabora.co.uk/bzr/telepathy/pymsn.devel/), this new object, as its name suggests, is supposed to hide the Switchboard management complexity from the facade classes :) I hope this will help enhancing our implementations ;)
