Re: [Gaim-devel] Support for RVP in Gaim?

[Luke S. <lsc...@us...>]

While not at all opposed to a SIP plugin, as those of you who watch & 
help with gaim development are no doubt aware, the odds of us picking up 
a new protocol without some outside help is rather low. just look at the 
slow progress on rendezvous for example.

still, it would be a good idea, msn & (now) sametime are not the only 
requests for it we see.
