added install.sh script added hardware detais for USB device included firmware/software from Dave Hillier's "Cube" notifier incl sourcecode included thunderbird dbus notifications extensions plugin included V-USB (free "GPL license" version)
changed hardware requires changed software!
added bugfix for an error where each incoming ICQ message would create a tray icon, regardless of whether conversation is already opened. This caused many tray icons to accumulate during a longer conversation which was quite annoying and ugly. Now thats fixed - only one icon shows up, all following messages don't cause further icons to appear UNLESS they are from someone new, i.e. if a new conversation is opened...
- main program modules are now compiled into python bytecode (faster) - user settings are now accessible through "config.conf" file - added bugfix for upcoming 'twitpocalypse' buffer overflow issue - minor changes regarding shell scripts - code cleanup (somewhat)
2009/06/02 added HowTo.txt (installation instructions for Ubuntu 9.04)
