MSN Protocol documentation

[Youness Alaoui]

Hi,
I agree on keeping the latest only, I don't like the 'transition' thing on msnpiki, it's useful when you have a preivous implementation but it's 
a pain in the a** if you want to start implementing a new client. What I would suggest is having the latest documented, when we move from one 
protocol version to another, we couldcopy the MSNP15 to MSNP16, set MSNP15 as obsolete, and modify the MSNP16 to show the changes, in order to 
always have one full spec for one protocol. And we should maybe also add a 'changes' page so that already existing clients can look up the 
differences, instead of rereading the whole msnp16 thing and looking for changes.. 
in short :
MSNP15 (obsolete)
Changes from MSNP15 to MSNP16
MSNP16 (full spec)

About documentation, I pretty much know everything there is to know about the protocol, hehe.. I've been reverse engineering and implementing the 
protocol for 6 years now so anything you can't do, I can take care of it. I know the http gateway stuff, msnp2p, file transfers, webcam, etc..
I can document what I see missing, but I could get webcam protocol assigned to me if you want, as well as OIM, Spaces... As well as MSNP2P if 
there's something missing. 
Is it ok with everyone ?
