This quick port was made by one the core developers, Bill Soudan (KDE developer), by telneting to my BeOS box and literally porting it through Telnet and having the BeBook open on his browser (he doesn't have BeOS installed)! Jbq from Be helped with the port providing advices on Be networking stack's behaviour and creating the dynamic library (Bill created the static one - both libs are included in this archive) .
Two things had to be thrown out of the source in order to compile: TCP-IP support and Proxy Socks support. For example use ICQ_SEND_THRUSERVER (which is uses the UDP protocol) instead of ICQ_SEND_BESTWAY (which may use TCP, which won't work). Chat and file transfer support are TCP only, though, so these functions will not work at all. The full monty will work and compile out of the box when BONE will be released (I reckon).
Now, exactly because BeOS's ICQ clients are nothing but stable, it is really-really a good idea to use this well-proven library and build a GUI around it which will utilize the library. By only developing the GUI for it, the developing process will be minimal (and especially if you use a RAD tool, like BeXL, a *full featured* ICQ client can be built in no time).
