- We aren't after much in terms of Yahoo! Messenger outside of protocol information, but it would be an honor if we could get our hands on most, if not all, original SWF files for Yahoo's audibles. An effort was made to get as many of these as possible a couple years ago on a Yahoo server (l.yimg.com), but at some point the server those were on took them down and only a handful were successfully extracted. Due to the fact that the way Yahoo listed audibles to the client makes modifying the listings to our specifications difficult (digitally signed), having a (mostly) complete collection would help find a way to possibly get the Audibles feature working later down the line. Looking in any old machine's browser cache or Yahoo Messenger files should be a good start.

- ANY region/language edition of ANY Yahoo! Messenger version would be great for us to get our hands on. Like MSN Messenger, Yahoo was released for several languages and regions, but most of those editions have been lost to time, with only a couple of these editions being archived in any capacity. Rditions that were officially available included, but are not limited to: UK, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Singaporean, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, and French.

- It'd also be a pleasure to obtain any `Ycontent` response data of any kind. `Ycontent` is a web service Yahoo! Messenger contacted, originally through the domain `insider.msg.yahoo.com`, to get configuration data it needs to function correctly, and also for address book functionality. While we have a good idea of how the service works and most of the responses for its sub-services, there are some sub-services that have yet to be figured out, and some like the `system` configuration while we do have responses for, aren't anything we're exactly looking for (in our case our copy of the `system` configuration for `Ycontent` makes it so that Yahoo! Chat is disabled on most clients, and because it's digitally signed we can't go in and simply fix that). Luckily Yahoo Messenger caches these responses in its program files in its `cache` folder, so finding a machine that was used for Yahoo Messenger at one point or another should be sufficient in finding the response data. |
