We've put libotr and gaim-otr version 2.0.0 online.  Check them out at
http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/

We'll be demoing gaim-otr 2.0.0 at CodeCon (http://www.codecon.org/) on
Friday, along with the localhost OTR Proxy for AIM (now with a partial
GUI).  If you'll be in the San Francisco area, come on out!

    Version 2.0.0 of libotr released. Changes from 1.0.4:

	- Machine-readable records can now be attached to Data Messages
	  inside the private channel.
	- New OtrlUserState datatype encapsulates private keys and known
	  fingerprints, instead of having a single global list.
	- Added libotr.m4 for helping to autoconfiscate packages that
	  use libotr.
	- Resend the last message if it caused a re-keying.
	- New OtrlPolicy datatype allows you to specify a per-connection
	  OTR policy: never use OTR, OTR only if manually requested,
	  automatically start OTR if possible, refuse to not use OTR. 

    Version 2.0.0 of gaim-otr released. Changes from 1.0.3:

	- Clicking the OTR button produces a notice in the conversation
	  window that it's doing something.
	- Added default and per-buddy policy selection: never use OTR,
	  OTR only if manually requested, automatically start OTR if
	  possible, refuse to not use OTR.
	- The OTR: button disappears if a particular buddy is set to
	  never use OTR.
	- Resend the last message if it caused a re-keying.
	- OTR control messages are no longer displayed as if they were
	  received as IM messages.
	- New multi-page UI
	- Send a control message to your buddy if you terminate a
	  private conversation with him.
	- Updated gaim-otr to match libotr 2.0.0 API.
	- Separated gtk-specific code from general gaim code, with help
	  from Evan Schoenberg.
