This should be easy since they should already be in that state. > I like the "broken lightbulb" idea Tom Parker came up with :).

I'm considering putting a graphic next to the contact to represent this, and possibly some further info in the roster item tooltip. -Justin _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
