+ About Pidgin
+Because of AOL, Gaim had to switch name to Pidgin in 2007, which has
+some effects on the above discussion. As of Dolda Connect 0.5, it is
+possible to compile the plugin for Pidgin as well as for Gaim. Most
+things still apply as they are, but some care must be taken. If you
+decide to install the plugin in your home directory, the relevant
+directory is now called $HOME/.purple/plugins. Also, the name of the
+plugin is called libdolcon-purple.so, instead of libdolcon-gaim.so.
