Found the source of various AIM problems

A while ago I reported to this list that I was having a few troubles 
with the AIM part of Fire.  Buddies on my list could never see when I 
was away or idle.  Additionally they could not see my away message 
when they tried getting info on me until they actually got an away 
message response when they messaged me.  Lastly nobody could see my 
profile - it was totally blank to any user that tried to look at it.

I found out what the problem was, and am hoping if The Developers 
That Be are aware of it.  After much fiddling I found out that it 
seems to be somehow related to the profile that I was using.  There 
seems to be an internal limit to the amount of characters the Fire 
profile (or perhaps the AIM server?) is able to store before things 
start breaking.  If you stay under that limit, everything is fine, 
but if you went over it (like I did) stuff stops working.  I don't 
know what the character limit is, but when I cut my HUGE profile in 
half, all the stuff that broke started working again.

Has this bug been reported?

And once again, I would like to say thank you for an awesome Mac OS X 
messaging client!
