Monkey Messenger

Monkey Messenger is an open source (MIT licensed) MSN client written using the MONO framework, gtk+ and the and a modified version of the DotMSN library.

The objective is to build a fully featured MSN Client, with all the functionality provided by the official MSN 7 client. For that, we've changed the DotMSN library to work with MSNP11, which is the protocol version for MSN 7. When MSNP11 is fully covered, we will move to MSNP13.

Monkey Messenger will follow the HIG and the KISS principle.
