Well, I gather this is not an issue with just kyim, but also with gaim, and maybe with everybuddy, ari-yahoo and others. So shouldn't we get those guys also into this? > From: Alexandre Aufrere <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [KYIM-support] Please Read and Answer !!! > > Hi all, > > OK, it seems we have a big problem with yahoo. > > Some people raised the idea of a petition, and that might be a good idea. > > However, if we decide to approach yahoo in such mood, we should have a real > argumentation. > So, i wanted to ask you all: What exactly do you like in KYIM that you > doesn't have with official yahoo messenger (apart yahoo messenger is not > Free, so it's Bad(TM), which isn't an argument in our case) ? Offhand... 1. The way Kyim handles sending offline messages. (Esp. if you have "show only online friends" enabled). 2. (Most imp.) KDE. I hate the fact that I need to have GTK libraries around for just Yahoo messenger. This is my single greatest peeve with yahoo messenger. 3. The new installation procedure - at least on RedHat systems. It sucks. > Yahoo is in big contradiction with OpenSource Software: they are using it > heavily (FreeBSD, Linux on several of their servers/routers/etc.), and at > the same time, they refuse us to work with their network. The entire site runs on FreeBSD/Apache. Anyway, is it established that only Indian users are affected?
