Open AIM 2.0

Open AIMWith AOL’s recent announcement on Open AIM 2.0 now live and getting lots of great attention, I thought I should write a quick post on it. This is truly exciting news. We are dramatically expanding our community when we open things up like this. So with that, I want to say “Welcome” to all the great developers out there. Here is this incredible AIM network that you can now use and build on.

I have actually been a part of the AIM core team for a number of months now, so I am available to help answer questions on Open AIM. I can now claim to have written code in imapp.dll, acccore.dll, coolcoreXX.dll, and xprtX.dll. Lastly, this guy sits next to me.

There are more great things to come.

    Hi Gus,
    Lately I heard about OpenAIM and got interested into it,I have gone through all AIM Module Plugin Samples here > http://dev.aol.com/aim/code ! However,I was wondering if I can get few sourcecodes of fully functional plugins as such,it will help me bigtime learning the same ,as in its implementation. Wondering if I can find sourcecode of plugins from AIM6’s folder in Program files somewhere after its installed ? kind of like we can access plugin’s source code for Firefox .. Thanks for help in advance,will appreciate if you email me its reply apart from posting the same here.Thank you.
