Build 31 finalizes the series of changes devoted to UTF8 message storage. A lot of problems were fixed, and now Miranda works quite stable. Some minor problems are still alive though. So:
- Jabber & MSN protocols use new schema now;
- SRMM, Scriver & tabSRMM are adapted;
- the only plugin with known problems is Tipper, the fixed version already exists in SVN, but Sje hadn’t published it yet (hopefully it will be uploaded to the File Listing soon);
- now the message receiving is also optimized, not only sending;
- the new dbtool is available to compress the existing databases.
ATTENTION 1: check that your dbtool has version 0.7.x BEFORE RUNNING IT. The old dbtool will corrupt all recently added outgoing messages.
ATTENTION 2: if you have some contacts with ANSI-only ICQ clients like Trillian or &RQ, don’t run dbtool right now: the messages of those contacts, written in non-English languages, will be also corrupted. Hopefully this problem will be fixed in the next build.
ANYWAY: MAKE A DATABASE BACKUP BEFORE RUNNING DBTOOL.

Despite the UTF storage, build 31 contains:
- some fixes for MSN plugin;
- true unicode button tooltips;
- completed privacy lists support for Jabber.
