I think the second way is the best. However, when a contact is dragged to No Group, and actually the contact is in multiple groups, then the user should be warned that moving a contact to No Group will remove it from any group it was in, and not just the group it was dragged from.

Hi guys,

I tried to fix the bug reported on http://www.amsn-project.net/ forums/viewtopic.php?t=3418 and there I noticed that the group handling is some kind of incomplete relating especially to the "no group". To the user this group appears a normal group, although it isn't, but the user doesn't even know. So I think the user should be able to handle with this special group almost the same as with a normal group. Drag & drop to this group is/was buggy (did it ever work?), but I think it should work. WLM doesn't allow this, there it's only possible to remove a contact from all groups by using the right-click menu. So we have two possibilities: 1. behave the same way as WLM, not allowing to drop the contact on "no group" or 2. we allow it and remove the contact from all other groups if it is dropped on the "no group". I think the easiest and for n00bs most logical way is 2, even if it might be a little bit strange that copies of the contact in other groups will be removed, too, if you drop the contact in the "no group". And as a logical consequence I would add the possibility to move a contact to "no group" from the context menu. What do you think? The other way, if you think the way WLM handles this, is better, we should add something like the "remove contact from all groups" to the right-click menu, otherwise the user has no easy way to move a contact from a group to the "no group".

Bye,
Mirko
