mcabber (0.6.2)
* The history log file format has changed; the old log files written by
mcabber < 0.6.1 are no longer supported and should be converted.
Please see the NEWS file for the details.

commands but /msay are disabled, so that lines beginning with a slash
can be sent

* Status messages can be user-defined (see sample config. file)
* mcabber now warns when logging is enabled and there is a write error while

dnd)
* The settings system has been rewritten
* Fix segfault when the resource is not specified
* New /alias command
* New /bind command
