As title says, the msn messenger servers have been stopped (except for China), so emesene msn backend will stop working soon (or already had!)

That being said, emesene still can be useful since it can support multiple backends (such as XMPP, currently implemented through SimpleXMPP).
Even if development has been dormant for a while, the code is still there if you want to play with it (desktop Whatsapp? Facebook Chat?).
Have fun,

emesene is a chat program that allows you to connect to different networks like MSN, Gtalk, Facebook chat, Jabber and others.

I think that msn shutdowning could be a great chance for emesene to improve other protocols and backends which are a bit disregarded right now (for istance XMPP/gtalk and its integration with log recorded on gmail).
Less msn, more emesene! ;-)
This makes me sad, dude. emesene will always have a place in my box-shaped heart. Thanks for everything.
rip my dear old friend :(
Wow!
Desktop Whatsapp!
RIP MSN :(
I do not understand emsene no longer officially developed?
Improving chat gtalk and facebook would be great, maybe even implement video calls. Also add Whatsapp would be a nice idea! I do not know if you can also add the Skype chat, but this application can give anchors a lot of satisfaction to users, especially if better integrated with Gnome, KDE, Unity, etc..
Still working here in Brazil, dunno for how long tho. And crap if i will use skype, back to icq all the way.
I was tjinking the same... there is an open source cli client perhaps it can be an backend...
Well... i think that you can do some for this change... the idea is easy: use the email service for create a new client that works of the same form of MSN But without the servers of msn (using only emails) all have a email account and no is need a microsoft email acount (gmail, yahoo, etc) whit a filter of the emails that of the contacts for show the friend´s email in a conversation...
well this is my idea, i dont english good and some parts of this must be wrong... if like i can explain more better on spanish...
Just wanted to say thanks, Emesene has been my favorite msn client for years. Good luck with your next projects! :)
