I've been looking at slchat.py from http://stux.wikiinfo.org/Tools and it looks out of date. Anyone how to get the SL protocol numbers for this release?

I think you would be better off using the mono app "Chatconsole.exe" that is part of the libsl project.

Yes, slchat.py isn't maintained any more because SL can log chat anyway, so it's a bit pointless!

The way I updated it was to tcpdump the packets sent out by some chat and replace the protocol numbers with the ones observed in the dump. It's not as laborious as it sounds...if you're used to tcpump :-)
