Please reconsider applying. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Sean Egan (seanegan) Date: 2004-11-20 18:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199625 This patch is over two years old. Yowza. Sorry about that. I'm not positive, but it sounds like the issues addressed are no longer relevent. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean Proctor (sproctor) Date: 2003-12-07 23:58 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=43755 The patch is horribly outdated, but the idea is still valid. I haven't read gaim source lately. Perhaps some of the issues have been resolved. I know the most visible one has been. if it's still showing buddies with the same name, but different protocols in the same window, I think that's bad. I think most people would agree. as for only being able to send from similar protocols, this is definitely still an issue. One that I think should be addressed. I just got a segfault from this that I'll post in another bug.

But if gaim anytime supports local nicknames these should always be different as you defined them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300235&aid=637685&group_id=235 |
