halleluiah! - gaim gets bonjour functionality

Here’s a list of some of the spectacular things the Summer of Code students accomplished during their two months.

* Rendezvous Plugin (Juanjo Molinero Horno) - Wrote a protocol plugin (PRPL) that communicates with Apple’s iChat using the Bonjour protocol. The Bonjour protocol uses multicast DNS to automatically discover other Bonjour users on your local network. The PRPL currently uses the Howl library for multicast DNS, but we’d like to switch to using Avahi in the future. This in CVS HEAD and will be in the next release of Gaim.
