Hi Justin, hi Psi developers. We have started to port Kopete to KDE4 (and thus Qt4). As you already know, porting effort require huge work, also considering the fact that KDE4 librairies are still a moving target and that Kopete is a big project. An initial port of our Jabber plugin was done.
To reduce porting efforts, we have imported Qt4 libiris from Psi darcs repository in the psi-0.11 branch. Also, we have changed our buildsystem for KDE, we were using automake before and we switched to CMake. To make libiris compile, we needed to do changes to the files, like adding #include "file.moc" and adding VISIBILITY macros, which need more patches on libiris. So our concerns is: - What will happen to iris ? Psi seems to develop on a Qt4-ified libiris and Justin has started to work on the next generation - For now, it is hard to synchronize our version of iris with Psi, because it is hard to track only a portion of Psi's Darcs repository, also some tasks are in Psi code itself and not counting our patches that we need to apply. What we would like is Psi put libiris in a different Darcs repository (or another version control system), so we can share efforts on libiris where Justin, Psi developers and Kopete developers will have write-access. Also it would be nice to have a release of libiris so Linux distributions could start to package it. I hope we can reach an agreement, and work together -- Michaël Larouche and Olivier Goffart, Kopete developers
