Summary: stop providing gaim 1.5.0 as supported

Initial Comment:
If you are not going to provide a working gaim 1.5.x with working MSN support, please stop providing gaim 1.5.0 at:
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/downloads.php
and just provide gaim2 there.

Lots of users just stop using gaim when they find MSN does not work.

Even Debian has decided to ship gaim2 because gaim 1.5.0 is ancient:
http://packages.debian.org/testing/net/gaim

If nothing else I would suggest that someone takes the fixed from the 2.x
branch and patch 1.5.x for msn support until 2.0 is actually finished and
ready for release.

Id hate to force beta software as much as the next person, but there is no
excuse for pushing (partially) broken software when there is a working
version of the code. Altering the download or patching 1.5.x shouldn't take
long for someone familiar with the code base which I wish I was right now
as this is a good point.
