Ad hominem attacks. Awesome. Your mail was a waste of time. I believe this thread is closed as we've reached consensus: we will consider this for 1.5, at which point the move to msn-pecan will be evaluated based on the status of msn-pecan and the importance of the YIM feature. And regarding your idealistic comment; yeah ideally every feature should be implemented, but since we have limited resource we need to prioritize. You can see the prioritized tickets here: http://code.google.com/p/msn-pecan/issues/list You can cast your vote there. But as you can see it's pretty obvious that the next items to work on are: an easier way to set personal messages (in Pidgin), and support to login to multiple locations. Cheers. -- Felipe Contreras
