Oscar Protocol Specification: Family 0x0013, Subtype 0x0003

unfinished

This rights information SNAC is sent by the server after you request it via a family 0x0013, subtype 0x0002 SNAC. It tells the client what rights it has to use family 0x0013. You will usually get your buddy list (subtype 0x0006) at the same time you get this, provided you requested it at the same time you sent the rights request SNAC. This, like many other SNACs, is made up of TLVs.

XXX: Max length of a screen name seems to be x0020 (might just be client-side)

XXX: Max length of a group seems to be x0030 (might just be client-side)

Thanks to Adam Fritzler for initially figuring out parts of this.

Length	Description
2 bytes	Family (0x0013)
2 bytes	Subtype (0x0003)
2 bytes	Flags
4 bytes	Snac Request ID (always 0x0000 0002, but it doesn't seem to be important)
X bytes	TLVs: Length Description 2 bytes Type 0x0002 - Unknown 2 bytes Length L of the following L bytes Unknown Length Description 2 bytes Type 0x0003 - Unknown 2 bytes Length L of the following L bytes Unknown Length Description 2 bytes Type 0x0004 - Maximum number of each item 2 bytes Length L of the following L bytes Sets of 2 bytes, 1 set for each possible type of item. So the first 2 bytes in this TLV correspond to the number of buddies you can have (type 0x0000), the second 2 bytes correspond to then number of groups you can have (type 0x0001), etc. Normally AIM lets you have 200 buddies, 61 groups, 200 permits, 200 denies, 1 type 0x0004, and 1 type 0x0005. Normally ICQ lets you have 600 buddies, 51 groups, 128 permits, 128 denies, 1 type 0x0004, and 1 type 0x0005. Length Description 2 bytes Type 0x0005 - Unknown 2 bytes Length L of the following L bytes Unknown Length Description 2 bytes Type 0x0006 - Maximum Size of An Item? 2 bytes Length L of the following L bytes Currently 2 bytes: 0x0061
