Somebody asked me if they could get Google Talk accounts to include MSN contacts into their roster. The answer, unfortunately, is no, unless you go through a proxy server that works around a bug in Google's Jabber server. That bug, like KeyChat (which, turns out, uses the Google libraries), will not allow you to grant authorisation to the name of a transport, which is a "Bare" Jabber ID. If there is no '@' in the JID, no amount of kicking and screaming will get KeyChat, Google Talk client, or the gadget to approve the request, and so the only time KeyChat can work your MSN contacts on Google Talk is when another client that sends presence updates, like Miranda or Psi, is running.
So to summarise: if you were hoping I could help you get MSN in GTalk, the answer is "No". Cheers, Sabahattin ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
