How do i interface with the MSN Protocol using Python?

Question

I am trying to connect to the MSN network using Python.. I've done some searching and it seems like http://blitiri.com.ar/p/msnlib/ and http://msnp.sourceforge.net/ are the available libraries. However both seem very old and is there any other up to date library that i can use?

Answer 1

I might be babbling here, but I think Python Twisted has a protocol implementation of msn.

Answer 2

libpurple at http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/WhatIsLibpurple

is the library that drives pidgin, and allows you to connect to MSN and others, not sure if there's a python wrapper for it.
