I already coded something for it... you can see it at gaim-bnetg.sf.net :)

Anyway, to use it, you need a valid cdkey and some files of the game =20
you're going to 'be identified of' (ex: for sc, you need starcraft.exe, =20
battle.snp and storm.dll), needed for the hashing checks during the =20
logon process.

Simply, put them in the ~/.gaim/sc/ folder, and try to connect :)

You can think of it simply as a new layer for (almost) all the chat/=20
channel operations... the new possibly operations I see whould be:
* get user profile info
* set your user profile info
* create a new account on bnet
* join to private channels

Anyway the question is if those few features are worth enough to =20
justify the needing of proprietary files and of a valid cdkey, for an =20
user that, using gaim, probably want only chat :P
